A deep red blend with rich aromas of black berries. Rich, smooth and elegant with a lingering finish given by the integration of the wine’s three varietals.

Pair with rich flavors like braised meats, osso bucco, mushroom sauces, and sharp, nutty cheeses.

The 2021 Privada Family Blend is a blend of 40% Malbec, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot sourced from Luján de Cuyo. Aged for 16 months in oak barrels, this purple wine presents ripe aromas of blackberry and plums, complemented by a faint balsamic whiff against a cedar backdrop. Dry, rich and plush, the velvety and juicy palate lingers long with a tasty finish. This is an intense, fruit-forward and balanced Luján de Cuyo wine from a cold vintage.

A consistently outstanding red blend featuring malbec, merlot and cabernet sauvignon. The cocoa powder and spice notes from the oak are adequate and certainly just supplementary to the healthy core of fresh, peppery blackberries and dark cherries with a touch of graphite. Medium- to full-bodied with firm, dusty tannins, showing fresh, intense black and blue fruit with violets and dark chocolate lingering in a lengthy finish. A great value. Vegan.

Up-front notes of vanilla and cocoa bean fold into a well-contoured core of plum and berry flavors, which takes on additional layers of cassis and chocolate. Ends with polished tannins, showing nice length. Malbec, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2034. 960 cases imported.
