The stunning color intensity of the Benguela Cove Vinography Malbec already enchants in the glass and delivers an equally intense palate. Multi-layered aromas of ripe red fruit, cherry tobacco, white pepper, leather, black cherry and violets ensnare the senses. The rustic elegance of Malbec meets delicate nuances of ripe strawberry, finishing long and delicious with solid tannin and youthful acidity. A stunning wine of remarkably pure fruit, intensity, length and balance.

The grapes were harvested at optimum ripeness and, on arrival in the cellar, were first left to rest overnight in the cold room before being sorted and selected by hand with great care the next morning. After a three-day cold swelling phase, the juice was inoculated at a temperature of 16°C with selected yeasts that started the alcoholic fermentation, which lasted for six days. During fermentation, the wine was gently pumped over periodically to extract maximum flavor nuances and color. Once the alcoholic fermentation was completed, it went to the press and the wine was put in barrel, where the malolactic fermentation was completed and the wine spent 18 months of aging before bottling.
