  • Intense and dark violet colour with a surprising sheen. Aromas of red fruits, strawberries, and some cherries. Subtle notes of flowers like violets and lilacs.

 The grapes were hand-sorted and selected in the winery before undergoing a four-day cold maceration at 9’,  followed by fermentation with 21 days of maceration in small stainless-steel tanks, concrete vats, and oak barrels, with spontaneous malolactic fermentation occurring in the barrel. This was followed by 19 months(of ageing in French oak barrels: 40 new, 20 second use, 40 third use.

 ’Combining intensity and freshness with aplomb, the 8ran Malbec is redolent with bright cherry fruit and floral complexity on the nose, followed by ripe plums, vanilla, and toasty oak on the palate. The silky tannins unfold through the mid-palate, leading to a bold and lengthy finish.

Winery

Pulenta Estate was founded in 2002 by brothers Hugo and Eduardo Pulenta, fourth-generation winemakers, to translate their family legacy and their father’s pioneering spirit 
into a modern, innovative winery that produces limited quantities of great wines. They have quickly carved out a reputation for precise, elegant wines across a range of varieties and premium price points. The estate consists of two vineyards in key areas of Mendoza: Finca La Zulema in Agrelo and Viñedos Don Antonio in Los Arboles, a district of the Uco Valley. These contrasting vineyards have complex alluvial soils and distinct altitudes that help give Pulenta wines their distinctive style when blended.
 The signature style of Pulenta is built on finesse, silky texture and elegant fruit character while displaying the typical power and depth of fruit expected of Argentinian wines. Their range features youthful wines under the Bodega La Flor label, bottled and released after 3 months in oak. The estate reds see 12 months in new French oak and 12 months ageing in the bottle before release. The ‘Gran’ wines are at the top of the range, and the pinnacle is the Gran Corte, an impressive blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Tannat.
