Lirico Winemaker's Wines Malbec Valle de Uco Mendoza
Parma violets, blueberries and redcurrant aromas are all on display. Lírico Malbec 2019 is medium bodied with a supple velvety texture. It has good mid palate and a long bitter chocolate and cherry finish. Malbec grapes, selected from vineyards between 30 and 50 years old, were picked by hand the second and third week of March. 30% was matured with oak.

Lirico Winemaker's Wines Petit Verdot Valle de Uco Mendoza
Deep purple in colour with floral hints and spices on the nose, more blueberries and cherries emerge on the palate. Lírico Petit Verdot is medium bodied with a supple mid palate and grainy texture. Vines are planted at high altitude and high density, producing just two bottles of wine per vine.

Lirico Winemaker's Wines Tannat Valle de Uco Mendoza
Oak currently dominates the nose with cedar and pencil lead characters. On the palate, Lírico Tannat is fuller bodied than Mauricio’s other red wines, with blackberry flavours showing through and a grippy finish. Originally from the south-west of France, quite a bit of Tannat is planted in Uruguay, but it remains relatively uncommon in Argentina.
