Tasting - Tussock Jumper Malbec 2022

Name:
Tussock Jumper Malbec
Variety: 100% Malbec
Region: Tulum Valley
Country: Argentina
Year: 2022
Price: $12

Winery Review: Everything starts in vineyards located in Caucete district, 650 metres above sea level, in a soil of alluvial origin with texture from sandy loam to clay loam and low content of organic matter. My grapes are hand-harvested and immediately sent for winemaking process in order to keep the optimum conditions. Before travelling around the world to meet you, I partly rest for 3 months in company with French and American oaks.

My Review: I got red berries on the nose, predominantly raspberries. Some oak and some vanilla come through as well with some blackberry on the end. The taste is quite fruit forward mostly of dark fruit and cherry. Some oak is present too with a bit of leather. It is tannic and tight with a long finish.
