Malbec 'La Escuela', Paraje Altamira

Finca La Escuela is located in Paraje Altamira, a premiere region for Malbec. It is named for the 100 year old rural school (Escuela) located on the property. The vineyard has a patchwork of unique soil structures: sandy in some areas, gravel in others, stony patches of calcareous rocks, and spots with light sandy, silt. Each soil profile imparts its own array of aromas, flavors and textures to the Malbec fruit grown there, increasing the complexity available from this single vineyard site.
