Achaval Ferrer Finca Altamira 2006
Wine Spectator Piercing aromas of violet, iron and blueberry fruit are followed by a massively rich, yet amazingly pure and precise palate of boysenberry and blackberry flavors. The riveting finish is loaded with minerality and dark, velvety fruit. This is still young, with loads in reserve. Best from 2009 through 2018. Score: 96. —James Molesworth, November 15, 2008. Wine Enthusiast One of the most untouched, terroir-driven Malbecs made in Argentina is Achaval-Ferrer’s Altamira. It’s harvested about three weeks earlier than most high-end fruit, resulting in core raspberry flavors and a certain redness of character. The wine is unfined and cloudy but still very clear on the palate, with length, power and class. Best from 2009–2012. Score: 92. —Michael Schachner, August 01, 2008. |
