From the Producer
We strive for a La Consulta-terroir driven Malbec that is complex and concentrated. Big and rich-tasting, with concentrated flavors of dark plum, dried blackberry and dark currant, flanked by luscious Asian spice notes. Very creamy as well, offering a plush, open-textured finish of dark chocolate and mocha.
