BenMarco Expresivo 2020

Gualtallary is recognized for its calcareous alluvial soils. As a result, BenMarco Expresivo is a lineal, fresh wine, with aromas of blackberries, pepper tree and violets. It stands out for its mineral notes, balanced natural acidity and firm tannins. Great aging potential.

Aged 14 months in French oak barrels (70% new, 30% second-use).

Perfect with red meats, roasted pork tenderloin, hard cheeses, and mostly cream-based sauces.

82% Malbec, 18% Cabernet Franc

“A nuanced but deep nose, showing crushed stones, fresh and glossy blackberries and blueberries, then flowers, asphalt, cocoa powder and chalk. Broad, exuberant and concentrated, but not at all heavy. This is juicy and so polished and dense, with silky, chalky tannins to coat the blueberry fruit. Fleshy, tight and seamless. Long and so seductive now. 85% malbec and 15% cabernet franc. Vegan. Drink or hold.” – 96 points, James Suckling
