Belasco Family "Llama" Malbec
$ 1499
The new vintage of our best selling Malbec, Belasco Family's "Llama," may be the best one they've delivered yet. Sourced from the family's 110+ year old vineyard in Mendoza, Argentina it's amazing that they can make a sub-$20 wine from such an ancient vineyard, but we're glad they do. Attractive dark cherry-red color with violet hues. The nose shows great intensity. Fruity aromas of cherries, blackberries and plums stand out against a background of fine toasty hints from ageing in top-quality oak. Warm, rounded and well-structured on the palate, with an explosion of fruit flavors underscored by light oaky notes.
