Note di degustazione
The 2018 Malbec Finca Piedra Infinita Supercal comes from Paraje Altamira, Uco Valley, specifically a selection of calcium rich soils. The reductive nose delivers aromas of sweet and sour cherry, violets and traces of herbs that, in the house style, take a while to appear, but when they do, they boast a fruity subtlety. It is tense in the mouth with a significant amount of chalk and a juicy freshness that marshals the palate, ensuring that the flavors are precisely organized. Intensity and nuance are the order of the day in this red made rugged by the chalky soils of the region. The 2018 is the kind of wine that gives drinkers plenty to think about.

There is a strong iron note in the 2018 Finca Piedra Infinita Supercal, a Malbec from a small plot within Piedra Infinita, usually the first plot to be harvested within Piedra Infinita. It's an extreme plot, very shallow and with pure stone and a strong character. They found this plot in search for "cal," pure limestone, so they want a strong sensation of chalk in the wine here. This is austere, and I think it's more precise than in previous vintages. Only 1,000 bottles were filled in August 2019.
