Obra Prima Reserve Malbec


Tasting Notes
Obra Prima Reserve Malbec is a selection of 100% Malbec fromĀ 100+ year old vines in Lujan de Cujo (vineyard was planted in 1911), harvested by hand at peak of maturity and vinified with prolonged maceration on the skins to enhance concentration of ripe fruit aromas such as plum and blueberry. Aged for 12 months in French oak barrels.
Full-bodied with a juicy finish. Enjoy with a hearty meal especially red meat cooked any style.
