Altos Las Hormigas Malbec 2019

Concentration is easy to achieve in Argentina, says Alberto Antonini, but texture is much harder. All I can say is that he has succeeded here on this best-ever release from Altos Las Hormigas, which brings Burgundian levels of grace and complexity to Malbec. Scented, hauntingly graceful and complex with remarkable focus and depth, a hint of oak, sweet red fruits and a lingering finish. Exceptional winemaking. 2023-2034.
