Cocodrilo Malbec – Crocodile Cut

A complex wine, very elegant and balanced. On the nose, freshness stands out, where we find red fruits such as morello cherry and cassis, pomegranate or black cherry. Very characteristic spicy notes of cabernet -pepper, cloves and paprika- are complemented by a floral touch and a herbal note of eucalyptus to achieve this elegant bouquet. On the palate it has a friendly entry, fine and sweet tannins, good length on the palate and persistence.

88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Malbec, 2% Cabernet Franc, 2% Syrah, 2% Merlot.
