Pyros Vineyard Limestone Hill 2017 is made with the best grapes from the Limestone Hill plot (Sierra Calcárea), whose soil is composed solely of calcareous rocks of prehistoric origin (480 million years old) and fine material (sand, silt and clay), which added Due to the cold climate of the place, they allow to obtain a wine with a unique texture on the palate and complex layers of flavor that make it different from other great Malbecs from Argentina.
It has a great aromatic intensity, offering red fruits, wild herbs and subtle floral notes. In the mouth, it is a vibrant wine, with fine and silky tannins, refreshing acidity and minerality. A refined Malbec, with several layers of flavours, it is complex and expressive with a long and persistent finish.
