Complete, expressive, inky.
The vineyards of El Porvenir are located at 1750m or 5,740 feet above sea level this trio blend is led by Malbec.
It has a precision and levity I've come to expect from the mile-high vineyards of Salta. Inky purple colour with aromas of vanilla, licorice, black cherries and blackberries. The palate is loaded with expressive fruit and has impressive concentration. Plush purple fruits and baking spices dominate the palate; it is supple, seamlessly woven and complete.
Outstanding.

Fresh, complexity, savoury.
The vineyards of El Porvenir are located at 1750m or 5,740 feet above sea level. This blend is equal parts Malbec and Cabernet Franc an is dominated by bouncy red fruits (think red plums and currents) atop dried herbs, leather, brown spices and tealeaf. The palate is an echo of the nose; red fruits, wild herbs and savoury spice flavours show good complexity. Balanced and fresh with integrated tannins.

Juicy, purity, youthful.
The family vineyards of El Porvenir are located around 5,700 feet above sea level in Tolombon very near Cafayate. The winery was established four decades ago by winery director Lucia Romero-Marcuzzi's grandfather Roberto Romero. Planted with Tannat and Torrontes (vines now 55 years old) the estate was expanded two decades ago with the addition Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah among others.
This Malbec comes from Finca Rio Seco, a vineyard 20 years old and it saw no oak. Expect juicy red and purple fruits such as cherries and berries, cocoa and herbs, vanilla, brown spices and hints of white pepper. It is a smooth red with a palate to echo the nose. Medium-full bodied it has notable purity and a fresh, youthful character; a slight chill before serving is a great idea for this bottle.

This 100% Tannat is inky with notes of wild black berries, roasted plums, dried herbs, espresso, dark chocolate and Szechuan peppercorns. It has a slick glycerol texture and powerful demeanor balanced with freshness. Earthy, bordering on brooding, it trails flavours of smoked spice, mocha and tobacco.
