Achaval-Ferrer Finca Mirador Malbec 2013
Free Shipping on 6 or more
Achával-Ferrer has produced its best collection of wines in 2013, with a superb showing of the ugly duckling, Finca Mirador, that usually suffers in comparison with Bella Vista and Altamira early on. But Santiago Achával tells me it's a winner in the long run. In this 2013, the Mirador even challenges Altamira! Splitting hairs anyway." Aug 2015
Winery: "A definitive expression of terroir. Pristine, medium ruby red in color with layers of spice and aromas of blackberry, dark chocolate, espresso and tobacco. Savory characters of graphite, leather, herbs and pepper add to the complexity and personality of this wine which finishes with textured elegant tannins. Low yields, careful vineyard management and low intervention winemaking are the hallmark of this and all other Achaval-Ferrer wines."
