Casa Natal Reserva Malbec 2020
Casa Natal is the birthplace of Argentina's modern wine movement, and their legendary wines come to life in Agrelo, Mendoza’s prime wine producing region. Located at the base of the Andes Mountain range which offers a perfect growing climate of warm days and cool nights. This phenomenon allows the grapes to achieve excellent fruit and tannin concentration, which is responsible for the wine's structure. 100% estate vineyards, hand-picked, and transformed from barrel to bottle, resulting in iconic award-winning wines.

Lovely black fruit and floral notes meet hints of spices on the nose. The grapes for this wine come from Chacayes and Agrelo, two prestigious regions in Mendoza. The palate is savory and fresh. Black fruit flavors mixed with a touch of cumin and bay leaf are backed by vibrant acidity and soft tannins. Pleasant herbaceous notes linger in the finish.

An intense and flavorful red with 50% malbec, 47% cabernet sauvignon and 3% cabernet franc in the blend. Ripe, minty blackberries and blueberries with some chili chocolate and dark spices. Rich, generous and flavorful on the full-bodied palate with juicy fruit and tannins. Peppery finish. Drink or hold.
