Bodega Noemia Malbec J Alberto 2021

Product description

These 4 hectares of vineyards were planted in 1955. The vines are massale selection, original rootstock ungrafted, so there is nothing clonal about these vines, and each one is genetically different from the other. The vineyard is composed of 95% Malbec interplanted with 5% Merlot. It is irrigated up to 4 times a year by the traditional method of flooding, with water of maximum purity coming from the Río Negro, which is the soul of our valley. The vineyard does not receive any type of treatment, sprays or sulphites; it is certified organic.

94 Points - James Suckling

A full-bodied red with olives, blackberries, wild blueberries, mussel shells and hints of licorice on the nose. Fresh and creamy, structured too, with a delicious saline minerality and fine, tea-like tannins. Drink or hold.
