GAUCHEZCO 2022 - Malbec Reserva - Valle de Uco, Mendoza - Argentina
GAUCHEZCO - Malbec Reserva - Valle de Uco, Mendoza - Argentina
This Malbec presents itself as deep red laced with violet overlays, with an elegant and complex style where notes of plum, raspberry, violets and vanilla invade the nose. To the mouth, the wine is balanced and concentrated with well-rounded tannins which emphasize its personality. A long and smooth finish reminds us of the wine's time in contact with oak.
