Brief Description

Tasting Notes

Heavy, deep dark red wine, beatiful structure and a good level of acidity as you'd expect from a top Argentinian Malbec.

This Manos Negras Malbec has ripe cherry, plumb and blackberries on the nose, deep and inviting, silky texture with a racy flash of acidity on the finish. Excellent plum fruit, herbal hints with fig flavours on the long finish.

About

Altamira at an altitude of 4,000ft has Mendoza’s most unique soil profile, with a patchwork of sandy, silty and stony soils all present in the same vineyard. These patches of stony soil are very low in organic material and very high in mineral content. Their poor profile naturally brings down yields for exceptional concentration of aromas and flavours. Their rocky character imparts a stony texture to the Malbec wines. Hence the wines name "Stone Soil Select Malbec"

The grapes are fermented for a total of 18 days then aged in new and old french oak. 20% of the juice is aged in new, 80% in old oak.

Ideal with...

Steak and lamb. Manos Negras Malbec is also perfect for flame grilled meats.
