Notes
The Michelini Brothers are at the forefront of natural winemaking, and produce a fresher style of Malbec using concrete fermentation. Bright purple in the glass, with flavors of blue fruit and violets. Great acidity, food-friendly, and biodynamically farmed!
The grapes are not destemmed. After pressing they are left for 5 to 6 months in cement egg to age. Natural fermentation with native yeast. Natural clarification.
