The tasting |

Dark red with carmine highlights. |

Expressive and intense, with powerful aromas of ripe red fruits and precious woods, underlined by a fresh hint of eucalyptus. |
|
| | |
|
Magnificent texture on the palate, with good density and fine, velvety tannins. A rich cuvée with remarkable finesse and long, concentrated persistence. |

With 65% Malbec, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, the 2020 red Mendoza Unus is a wine of great dimension, rich, structured, deep and complex. This wine of great distinction and finesse, well served by its ageing, offers a magnificent texture, a dense, concentrated structure, with rich, sappy tannins. A wine for laying down, 20 years at least. An Olivier Poussier " favorite ", rated 96/100. |
