James Suckling, 93 Points

"Intense aromas of stone and concrete with blueberry and lavender undertones. Full body yet compacted and dense with a linear backbone of tannins. Juicy dark fruit character. Beautiful drinkability."

Winemaker Notes:

"Sourced from the Altmira district of the San Carlos county, located in the southern Uco Valley at an elevation of 4,000'. Altamira has Mendoza’s most unique soil profile, with a patchwork of sandy, silty and stony soils all present in the same vineyard. The stony soils contain a high content of surface stones – round rocks that are literally painted white with calcium carbonate.

These patches of stony soil are very low in organic material and very high in mineral content. Their poor profile naturally brings down yields for exceptional concentration of aromas and flavors. Their rocky character imparts a stony texture to the Malbec wines. The Manos Negras Stone Soil Select Malbec is made entirely from select Malbec grapes from these patches of stone soils."

Pairing Suggestions:

"Meats: Steak, turkey, pork or lamb
Cheeses: Blue cheese, provolone, mozzarella, melted Swiss
Herbs & Spices: Shallot, sage, rosemary, cumin, pepper
Vegetables: Mushroom, toasted pepper, potato" - Wine Folly

Alcohol: 13.5%
