The red wine Amancaya Gran Reserva, vintage 2012 from the winery Bodegas Caro has been rated in 2017 by Peter Moser und Ulrich Sautter with 89 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon from the region Southern Mendoza in Argentina.
Intense blueberry fruit, dark chocolate, blackberry, almost Zin-like expressiveness, powerful palate, crumbly tannin, very elegant use of wood, which rounds and lubricates the finish, the wine remains balanced despite the deep acidity, because the tannin, despite its mildness, still has enough dimension to invite you to chew. Noticeable alcohol, but not prominent.
More about the tastingDark ruby garnet, black core, delicate rim brightening. Inviting aroma of dark berry confit, underlaid with ethereal notes, a hint of herbal spice, some liquorice. Juicy, elegant, well-integrated tannins, finesse-rich acidity, blackberry fruit on the finish, delicate tobacco notes in the aftertaste, good potential.
