Amalaya Malbec 2020

Violets, currants, blueberries, pepper and orange peel on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with sleek tannins and bright acidity. Fresh, juicy and bouncy. Drink now.

Focused and vibrant nose of blackcurrant, leather, polish and damson notes. Pleasant palate with fine-grained tannins and oaky spices.

I love the ultra young and fleshy 2020 Malbec that in reality contains 10% Tannat and 5% Petit Verdot. It's ripe without excess and was bottled after one-fourth of the volume spent eight months in oak barrels. So, the effect of the oak is not noticeable in the aromas or flavors, and the wine comes through as fruit-driven and juicy while still keeping the varietal profile. They produced no less than 720,000 bottles of this wine. It was bottled in September 2020.
