WINE DESCRIPTION
Piattelli Malbec - Tannat Reserve is a premium red wine produced by Piattelli Vineyards, a renowned winery located in the Mendoza region of Argentina. This wine is made from a blend of Malbec and Tannat grapes, which are grown in the high-altitude vineyards of the Andes Mountains. The unique terroir of the region, with its rocky soils and cool climate, gives the wine its distinctive character and complexity. The grapes are carefully handpicked and fermented in stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in French oak barrels for 12 months. The resulting wine is full-bodied, with rich flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and spice, and a long, smooth finish.
