(Wine Advocate Score 95) The nose of the 2015 Malbec Finca Altamira is full of aromas of blood orange and bittersweet cherries, and the palate reveals dusty, slightly grainy tannins and a very pleasant mouthfeel, with balanced acidity. It has some rusticity I had not seen in previous years. There is power and freshness. 12,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in October 2016.

Altamira is a mountain with extreme weather. Quiet and calm are mixed into the intensity of the peaks of Tunuyan. It is the most symmetrical of the vineyards: it possesses a ray of aromas ranging from black and red fruits to passing flowers to spices and minerals. It is rich, fresh and opulent, complex and fascinating. Altamira always has a new story to share.

Aerated pump-overs with soft sprinkling of the cap, followed by pressing at the end of and up to 4 days after fermentation as determined by daily tasting results. No ltering. Cold soaks, acid correction, bleed-offs and addition of enzymes were not used during vinification.

Fermented in cement tanks at a maximum temperature up to 93-95oF with extensive pumping over for better extraction. 15 months in new (100%) French Oak Barrels.
