No. Barrel Select and Afincado are not the same wines.

Afincado is a different line of wines, which has world-wide distribution. Afincado wines follow the single-vineyard concept. Afincado has three versions.... a Malbec, a Cabernet Sauvignon, and an 'elusive' dessert wine made from Petit Menseng**.

(**) I understand that the dessert wine is the only member of the Afincado portfolio that is not exported
