Lifted and floral, with pretty black fruit aromatics, while the palate is layered with lush cassis, crunchy red cherry and succulent, rounded textured tannins.
Background StoryIn the process of looking for a unique area to produce unique wines, with character, personality and history; we found a magnificent terroir within the Altamira region, and we became hostage to the beauty and flavors we found there. When we discovered our old little vineyard, the idea of producing a Malbec that was a perfect expression of it, became our noble purpose. See, Altamira has a unique combination of elements that fosters the perfect terroir for producing Malbec wine. So the search began, and we as adventurers started producing a Malbec that would reflect the authenticity of our place. The aim was to create a wine that would tend towards silky tannins, seductive notes of flowers and graphite and a long, linear and fresh finish, and so our Terroir Expressions Hostage Altamira Malbec was born.
