Bodegas Caro (Barons De Rothschild / Catena) Aruma Malbec

Aruma is a pure malbec made from a blend of grapes from the best terroirs in the mendoza region. Aruma means night in the language of the quechua the native indian population of the mendoza region. The name suggests the deep darkness of the nights in the andes and the very pure mountain air: the wines have the same rich authentic character as their terroir. The beginning of the season was characterized by higher than usual rainfall lower than average temperatures and less sunshine. This combination while rare for mendoza was perfect for the wine giving it a higher natural acidity and remarkably fresh flavors. Tasting notes (at bottling): red color with hints of violet. The nose expresses notes of ripe red fruit and plums. On the palate it is a well-balanced wine with excellent acidity. The elegant silky well-rounded tannins are typical of the malbec grape. Long delicate finish. – bodegas caro (barons de rothschild / catena)
