The abundant stones provide optimal drainage and extreme temperatures. They absorb heat and moderate the nights, but also function like ice cubes after a very cold night. Stony soil Malbec’s tend to be extremely aromatic, rich and luxurious, just like the River Malbec from Adrianna. Enjoy this wine young or aged for decades.
