Winemaker Notes
With a deep-purple color. The nose presents mostly red and blue fruit aromas, such as blue berry and cherry, and a subtle note of nougat. The palate shows good structure, soft tannins that are in balanced with nice acidity. The finish is long and persistent, with notes of fresh fruit complimented by a subtle toasted aftertaste.
Blend: 98% Malbec, 2% Petit Verdot
Press
Rated 90 Points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Gran Reserva Malbec is a more traditional range while Secrete is more modern, even if the styles converge slowly... Here they mature the wine in oak, 60% of the volume in French oak barrels for 10 months. But it's still varietal, balanced, juicy and fruit-driven. It's round, with unnoticeable tannins and a soft mouthfeel, very easy to drink.
