Followers of Achaval Ferrer tend to seek out Finca Bellavista, made with grapes from Perdriel, next to the riverbed of Mendoza River. Fermented in concrete vats, followed by 15 months in 100% new French oak barrels, this shimmering, deep purple Malbec delivers a pristine nose of plum and sour cherry combined with lavender and a touch of kümmel. Juicy and refreshing in the mouth, it is both taut and energetic with a straightforward texture and basic flavors enhanced with delicacy and nuance. A beautifully made Malbec from winemaker Gustavo Rearte.
