Amalaya Rosé

Calchaqui Valley, Salta

For centuries, farmers made offerings in hope for a miracle - as Amalaya translates in the local language - for a bountiful harvest. It is located at 5,900 feet above sea level, in the Calchaquí Valley, northwest of Argentina. The region stands out as one of The Highest Vineyards In The World, characterized by its dry climate with no more than 150 mm annual rainfall, with significant thermal amplitude; rocky and sandy soil.

Tasting Notes

Floral attack, very subtle with orange blossom reminiscence which come from the Torrontés. Notes of cherries and strawberries typical from the Malbec. Very Fresh. In mouth, refreshing entry, velvety and fruity. Medium body which preserves freshness and fruitiness. The final is fresh, elegant and the Torrontés floral notes outstanding in a subtle way.

    "Pink panther in the glass. The nose offers a hint of cherry and attractive white flavor aromas. In the mouth it's dry, malic and refreshing."
