They started at Finca Altamira, a century-old vineyard in La Consulta, Uco Valley, about an hour south, and later, in 2002, added the 102-year-old vines of Finca Bella Vista in Perdriel. Malbec takes center stage here, with Achaval Ferrer crafting wines that emphasize finesse and balance over the bigger, more tannic styles. With their silky texture and seamless palate, the old vines produce small amounts of intensely flavored, aromatic, and complex fruit, perfectly complemented by nine months in two-year-old French oak barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Achaval Ferrer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52906788716728,"sku":"SKU-260226225744","price":75.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4211\/3208\/files\/175B2558-9496-4D92-8BC3-89B6BA87FD15.jpg?v=1772667868","url":"https:\/\/www.vauclusecellars.com.au\/products\/archaval-ferrer-mendoza-malbec-2022","provider":"Vaucluse Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
