Tasting Notes
Terrazas de los Andes Extremo Malbec presents an attractive ruby red color. It exhibits a rich aromatic expression with delicate aromas of red fruit, complemented by notes of violets, wild thyme, and other native herbs from the surrounding biodiversity. On the palate, it reveals freshness and juiciness, featuring a texture marked by enveloping and granular tannins reminiscent of chalk and graphite. With balanced acidity, fruit flavors take center stage, accompanied by subtle hints of vanilla and cinnamon that betray its barrel aging, adding complexity and elegance.
