Achaval Ferrer Finca Altamira Malbec Mendoza Argentinien 2002
These are single-vineyard Malbec varietal wines, from very special vineyards. They are old vineyards, planted 50 to 93 years ago. This gives the wines complexity and balance. The vines are planted on their own roots, not grafted. This gives the wines the truest varietal expression. The vineyards are located in truly unique microclimates. This gives the wines a distinct personality. Vintage after vintage they can be recognized as true to their terroir.
Wine Spectator : 94/100 - Lush Layers of inky blackberry, black fig jam and creme de cassis. Terrific length, puity and balance.
Bester Rotwein des Jahrganges 2002 in Argentinien.
