DomicianoCosecha Nocturna Malbec 2017
About this product
100% Malbec
Presented with an intense and vibrant violet colour. Complex nose, rich and concentrated floral aromas that are mixed with cherry, blackberry and cassis. The presence of black pepper and vanilla accompanies and increases its complexity. Live and ripe on the palate, with juicy red fruits that are complemented with hints of smoke. Its structured tannins of unconventional texture make it feel soft and intense at the same time. The mineral finish followed by tobacco gives it a silky persistence, affirming its origin from Barrancas, Maipu.
Best served at 16-18° C
Enjoy with a BBQ, red meats or pasta.
Nocturnal harvest. Controlled fermentation. 10 months of French and American oak.
About the winemaking process:
Domiciano produces wines with 100% Malbec grapes, harvested during the fresh nights in our farms in Barrancas to avoid oxidation and thus preserve the maximum aromatic expression. Once the grapes are taken into the cellar, they are allowed to macerate at cold, controlled temperatures for 5 days in stainless-steel tanks. Then they ferment with selected yeasts, maintaining the temperature between 25 to 28ºC for approximately 15 days. Later, the wine rested in a combination of French and American oak for 10 months.
About the winery:
The vineyards of Domiciano de Barrancas are located in the heart of Barrancas, south of the Mendoza River. The climate is dry and sunny, with great thermal amplitude between day and night; this allows a slow and progressive maturation, harmonising the sugar-acidity ratio. The tall trellises are irrigated with the purest water, the melting snow of the Andes.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.
