Alta Vista Description

Winemaker Notes

#80 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2021

In nose, complex due to its three vines. Notes of violet, pepper, cinnamon and licorice. In mouth, it is a balanced combination: The silkiness of the Malbec, the structure and power of the Cabernet Sauvignon, and the intensity of the Petit Verdot that integrates this assemblage. A complex and persistent wine.

Critical Acclaim

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The harmonious, elegant and balanced red blend 2018 Atemporal was produced with 62% Malbec (higher than in the previous year), 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Petit Verdot from their vineyard in Campo de los Andes in Vista Flores. The varieties fermented separately in 11,000-liter concrete vats and matured in 225-liter used oak barrels for 12 months, but they feel very integrated and complement each other, and the wine comes through as subtle and elegant within the powerful style of the place. It's ripe without excess, spicy, herbal and juicy with a medium-bodied palate that reveals very fine, chalky tannins and terrific balance.

James Suckling
Plums, blackberries, currants and fresh herbs on the nose. Full-bodied with dusty tannins. Layered and round on the palate. Softly structured, but with a juicy feel and a flavorful finish with some length. Blend of 62% malbec, 30% cabernet sauvignon and 8% petit verdot. Drink or hold.
WS90
Wine Spectator
Juicy and well-structured, with good cut to the concentrated red plum and wild berry flavors that are filled with rich acidity. Mineral and cooking spice accents linger on the fresh finish. Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.
