2011AmancayaGranReservaMalbecCabernetSauvignon

Sans A co-venture between the great First Growth Chateau, Lafite Rothschild and Argentina’s Catena â€?Bodegas Caro, the Amancaya blend represents a perfect harmony of New World inventiveness with Old World tradition. Crafted from Malbec vines up to thirty years old, using the best French cooperage and blended skillfully from a broad range of clonal material and altitudes, along with a good splash of Cabernet to provide structure for keeping. The results are a cut above the predictable supermarket blandness many Argentinian producers are now turning out. Once again, we’ve dealt directly with Caro to ensure this wine arrives into Australia at an extraordinary price point.
