WINE NOTES

This single vineyard wine was 100% organically grown at over 3000 ft. above sea level in Mendoza, Argentina on the Caligiore Organic Vineyards. Produced in an easy drinking style with "old vine" Malbec (80 year old vineyards). The balance of the wine was aged in tank while 20% received French Oak aging for eight months to extend the palate and mouth feel. As seen on LOT18.com
