The Pulenta estate is situated in Alto Agrelo in Mendoza,Argentina's main wine producing region.The vines are grown up to 980 meters above sea level on the lower slopes of the Andes mountains.Irrigation comes from melted water from the Andes and the whole process is de facto organic! This is a fabulous presentation in a very heavy bottle...deep,dense,rich,spicy,with a dark red plum colour.This is a hugely aromatic and complex Bordeaux-style blend:-
"The 2007 Pulenta Gran Corte is composed of 37% Malbec,24% Cabernet Sauvignon,27% Merlot,7% Petit Verdot,and 5% Cabernet Franc.It spent 16 months in 80% new French oak.Dark ruby-colored,it offers up an exceptionally perfumed complex bouquet of spice box,mineral,balsam wood,black cherry,and black currant.Suave on the palate with a velvety texture,this is a forward layered,sweetly fruited wine with excellent concentration,impeccable balance,and a lengthy finish.Although it can be enjoyed now,it will benefit from 2-3 years of cellaring and will provide pleasure through 2022".
