Tacana Reserva 2022

Malbec
8,400 feet
Organic
1 year in French oak

Tacana is the Bonner family’s very first wine, from the Bonner family ranch Finca Gualfín; it is the wine which originally gave rise to the Partnership. Pucarilla vineyard, discovered by Bill and his sons, is home to rows of old-growth malbec still on their original rootstock, completely unaffected by phylloxera. Pucarilla sits at more than 8,400 feet of elevation, a tiny green valley high in the dry & rocky mountains. Snowmelt and careful management of rainwater keep the vines producing.

Rich cocoa, dark purple fruits, soft tannins. This Reserva benefits from 1 year in French oak, mellowing it out and adding some delicious honeyed notes & warm spices.
