Alta-Yarí Gran Corte 2020

If you want to taste a red that expresses the quintessence of high-altitude Gualtallary, look no further than this stunning assemblage of Cabernet Franc with 35% Malbec and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged in deftly handled 50% new wood, it’s wonderfully fresh and well-balanced, with thyme and wet stone aromas, racy acidity and tangy red plum and black cherry fruit. Drink date: 2024-2030. Score – 96. (timatkin.com, Argentina Special Report 2022)
