Note di degustazione
Produced with grapes from the classical Mendoza district, the 2015 Bramare Luján de Cuyo Malbec feels very ripe and a little earthy. In more recent vintages, they moved more toward Las Compuertas and fresher zones even within the Luján zone. The palate is medium-bodied, with moderate acidity and some dusty tannins. The combination of ripeness and oak gives it some rusticity. 50,400 bottles produced. It was bottled in November 2017.

(14.5% alcohol): Healthy bright ruby. Even darker on the nose than the Uco Valley Malbec, offering scents of blueberry, licorice and violet accented by white pepper, tobacco and spices. Distinctly savory in the mouth but a bit of aeration brings lovely sweetness and generosity of texture. Quite deep but still primary and youthful. Finishes with sneaky building length. This is a bit fresher and more vertical than the Valle de Uco Malbec, which is sweeter and broader, with more velvety tannins. Vignoni told me that the crop level here was about five tons per hectare, including some century-old vines, and that he generally likes these wines best about seven or eight years after the vintage.
This is really complex and balanced with lots of chocolate, walnut and currant character. Full to medium body. Wonderful energy and complexity. Drink or hold.
