91 Points - James Suckling
"Blackcurrants, black beans, dried herbs and cumin on the nose. It’s savory and medium- to full-bodied with well-integrated spice and herb notes to the dark fruit, accompanied by supple tannins. Why wait? Delicious now." James Suckling

Always a favourite with Winesale customers and staff alike!  You may have tried a Mendoza malbec but, just sample what the Calchaqui valley has to offer.

The El Esteco wines are from Calchaquí valley, a unique region at an altitude of 1,800 meters (5,500 feet) above sea level, with its ever-present sunshine and perfect temperature range, the environment is perfect for the creation of high-end wines. The Don David range of wines are named after Don David Michel a French immigrant who came to the region and founded the El Esteco winery. Today El Esteco is the flagship winery of the region and making its mark on the wine world.

Select grapes from older vines. 70% of the wine is aged in small barrels of both American (40%) and French (60%) Oak for 12 months. Aromas of plum jam, Raisins, Chocolate and vanilla spice. Medium - full bodied lengthy flavour and satifying finish.
