Experience total indulgence in every sip of Alpasion Los Chacayes Old School NV. This Argentinian delight, meticulously handcrafted in Mendoza's Uco Valley, is a testament to the superb winemaking tradition of the Alpasion Winery. The NV in the name stands for 'non-vintage', indicating the mixing of grapes from different years to achieve a consistent, high quality taste. Produced from 100% Malbec grapes, each handpicked from 35-year-old vines, this fine wine is made using traditional methods. The grapes are harvested early morning, to retain their freshness, then aged in concrete eggs to preserve their pure, authentic flavours. The result is a wine with an expressive nose of black cherries and plums, laced with hints of black pepper spice. On the palate, Alpasion Los Chacayes Old School NV offers intense dark fruit flavours balanced with a beautiful minerality, underlying floral notes, and well-integrated tannins, culminating in a persistent, elegant finish. An impeccable and sophisticated selection for fine wine connoisseurs. |
