"L'Atamisque Assemblage 2015 is a blend with hints of pepper composed of 50% Malbec, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot from La Consulta in Mendoza's Uco Valley. This is a classic blend with very good classic barrel ageing, herbaceous and spicy flavours and aromas, balanced and savoury on the palate, with good ripeness and acidity." (Wine Advocate 2017 - Robert Parker). A great vintage with great potential!

About the wine:
Fresh, aromatic nose with notes of black berries and Thai basil. Full-bodied, sustained by firm, silky tannins. A blend of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. To be enjoyed in 2020, when the tannins are more mellow.
