About the Wine

 

Merlot is an overlooked varietal in Mendoza, yet the region's vineyards often churn out stunningly great examples. The thousands of acres of the grapes planted in Tupungato attest to this.  Like the other wines from Alberti 154, this is small production value-driven wine at its best!

Tasting Notes

 

Cherry red in color. Bright aromas and flavors of plum, boysenberry, chocolate, and wild herbs. Medium tannins and a soft finish make this a great everyday drinker.
