[SPECIAL OFFER] TERRAZAS PARCEL LOS CEREZOS MALBEC 2017 - 750ML

PRODUCT DETAILS

The 2017 harvest was characterized by its high quality and low volume. The cold of the previous two spring seasons combined and resulted in low weight clusters, but the concentration and general quality of the grapes was exceptional as a consequence of the health of the grapes, the excellent weather at the time of maturity and the low quantity of grapes per plant.

Due to the yields and excellent maturity, the wonderful concentration of tannins and very intense colors that were achieved in this varietal are amazing. The typical aromas of red fruits, plums and violets are very present. Thanks to the structure achieved by the tannins, this vintage has achieved wines that fill the mouth and we can anticipate that they will have a great capacity for ageing
