Flechas de los Andes 2006 Gran Malbec (Uco Valley)

Country: Argentina / Mendoza Province
Variety: Malbec
Winery: Flechas de los Andes / Gran

Big-format Malbec is what we’re calling this new 15.5% wine from Benjamin de Rothschild and Laurent Dassault, original partners in Michel Rolland’s Clos de los Siete project. Round, lush and full of body, Flechas shows muscle but little fat. It’s colorful, dark, full of black fruit and long on the finish. It is modern Malbec done for modern palates.
