Stunning Malbec and a slice of history at the same time, in the early 2000’s these wines were leading the way. Achaval Ferrer was founded by a group of Argentinian and Italian friends who loved wine and were determined to produce something outstanding – an aim encouraged by celebrated Italian oenologist Roberto Cipresso, one of the founding team. All the bottles have great levels and I have more of them if required.
Bella Vista vineyard was planted in 1910 at the Mendoza River south bank in the region of Perdriel (Lujan de Cuyo). Achaval Ferrer Finca Bella Vista It is distinguished by its smoothing features and finely meshed texture. It is elegant and aromatic with an endless finish and a juicy acidity that stands out. It is the most elegant expression of Malbec that you will find anywhere.

Big wine! Still a long way to go. High acidity, lots of fruit. Big and not very complex but great.

Always a treat. At 12 years of age, still has miles to go. Floral power, with gobbles of minerality, graphite, blue/red fruits. Rich and velvety. Brilliant length. Powerful yet agile and..believe it or not, fresh.
