Karim Mussi

Alandes Concrete Tank Red Blend 75cl

£19.50

Internationally recognised as one of the most talented winemakers in Argentina today, Karim Mussi continues to go from strength to strength, with leading wine critics falling over themselves to heap praise on these expressive and distinctive wines. Altocedro is a terroir-driven winery in La Consulta, a special spot in the Uco Valley. Alongside Altocedro, the Alandes project represents absolute freedom, a ‘laissez-faire’ winemaking philosophy that is in an extensive territory without borders.

From the inception of the winery in 1999 Karim’s winemaking philosophy has been centred around the use of his historic concrete fermentation tanks, which provide textural interest and full varietal expression in the resulting wines. 100% fermented and aged in small concrete vats, no oak.

Fresh plums, violets, blueberry, crushed-stone and mineral aromas on the nose lead to a fresh and brightly fruited, medium-bodied palate with firm, silky tannins.
