Xavier Flouret « La Pilar » Mendoza Malbec 2023

This wine has an attractive color and aromas of fresh, ripe fruit that harmonize perfectly with delicate notes of violets and oak aging. On the palate, it is intense with a characteristic Malbec entry that is both sweet and medium-firm. The smooth texture and silky tannins are particularly noteworthy.
