Case 6 Single Vineyard San Carlos Malbec
This Single Vineyard comes from the century-old Malbec vines of the San Carlos vineyard, established in an alluvial soil, a mixture of the Tinguiririca and Chimbarongo Rivers, with very good porosity, thanks to the high proportion of clay and coarse sand.
These are ideal conditions for Malbec, which in this soil and given the age of the vines, achieves its maximum fruit expression, great balance, elegance, and complexity. We conceptually illustrate this soil on the new label.
The background color is brown, representing the clayey sand that characterizes the San Carlos soil.

Tasting Notes
Deep red in color, this wine presents a nose of great aromatic complexity, with floral and spicy notes standing out, which then give way to elegant notes of black fruits such as cassis and cranberry.
On the palate, it is a fresh wine with silky, refined tannins and a great texture that support a broad and persistent finish.
