Vistalba Corte B is a brilliant wine blend crafted in Argentina, capturing the essence of Mendoza with a combination of three grapes - Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Bonarda. It is a red wine that presents an intense, ruby colour with violet hues, and noble tannins that provide a rich and full-bodied mouthfeel. This blend boasts a bouquet of dark cherry, blackberry, vanilla, chocolate, and oak aromas - harmonious, elegant, and expressive. It is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, which add complexity to the wine's flavours and aromas. The vineyards are located on the Vistalba Estate in Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza. The terroir has soils of alluvial origin with an upper layer of silty clay loam composition, and then the ridge is dominated by a conglomerate with abundant presence of pebbles and covered by a layer of calcium carbonate. The vineyards are located 995 meters above sea level.
