Arboleda Brisa 2017

This is the second vintage of Brisa, a wine based on the Las Vertientes Vineyard planted around 1999. This year's blend is 40% syrah, 20% cabernet sauvignon, 17% garnacha, 13% mourvèdre, and the rest is malbec, aged in oak (15% in foudres and the rest in barrels) for 22 months. The fruits are ripe and red, and there are spice notes in this wine with firm tannins and very good grip. It's still young - give it a couple more years. Score - 94.
