Flechas de los Andes - Gran Corte 2020 (750ml)

Classic Uco Valley aromas of deep berry fruits are touched-up by oak that lends tobacco and vanilla to the nose. On the palate the pretty cherry, plum and raspberry flavors are Bordeaux-like, with nice acidity on the finish. Drink through 2028—this will last for ages. Critical Acclaim JS 94 James Suckling A profound and brooding nose with blue and purple fruit and flowers. Spices, violets and a hint of asphalt. A co-fermentation of malbec and cabernet franc. Very fleshy and round on the full-bodied palate with plenty of fine-grained tannins and a flavorful finish. RP 92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate The 2019 Gran Corte is still a bit oaky after the wine matured in 100% new French oak barrels. It's a slightly different blend each year, and in 2019 it is 55% Malbec, 40% Cabernet Franc and 5% Syrah that ripened thoroughly to 14.5% alcohol, making the wine ripe and a bit heady, powerful but balanced and with abundant, fine-grained tannins.
