Hacienda Albae Malbec

£10.15
Following 40 years of growing grapes, the Carpintero family decided it was time to turn their amazing fruit into their own wines. In 2001, they began experimenting and a few years later they were convinced they had the right quality fruit for the wines they wanted to make. The winery was built in the heart of La Mancha, surrounded by their own vineyards and is one of the most beautiful and technologically advanced wineries in the region. No expense has been spared to ensure maximum quality, their very clear goal. State of the art fermentation tanks so they can vinified each parcel seperately. Their own machine harvesters allows them to pick at the perfect point of ripeness, which passes quickly here in the hot dry planes of central Spain. A stunning and well equipped barrel cellar provides the finishing touch.

Made 100% from Malbec grapes from their own vineyard. Malbec is a variety of long cycle. Our unique climate allows us to keep the grapes in the field until the last moment as the sun conditions and lack of rain is the perfect environment for the development of this grape. While in other regions they are forced to pick the grapes before their optimal state for weather or sanitary issues, we can wait until we get the perfect maturation. The grapes are harvested at the end of October, and always by means of a non-vintage harvest.

Tasting Note:
"Its high concentration of fruit gives it a sweet and kind mouth. Of soft and silky tannin, the balance of oak and fruit is very elegant. "
