Tasting notes |
The top wine from Alta Vista, this elegant masterpiece is the quintessence of the best Terroirs of Argentina.
Deep ruby red in color with complex aromas of black fruit, spice and hints of chocolate. On the palate it is elegant and full-bodied with silky tannins and a long, intense finish. Alto is a rich, complex and sensual wine.

Tasting notes |
The wine is a dark purple colour. Rich aromas of jammy dark fruit bursting with ripe red fruit flavours, and beautifully balanced by a firm underlying structure. The wine is a sensational fusion of cherry and plum flavours that are rich and soft on the palate.
