Rutini has just launched its new Icon Malbec... the Apartado Gran Malbec 2008. This is the first vintage of this wine, and is a "secret" project of Paul Hobbs. This is a blend of old and new vines from the top Mendoza microclimates.. truly exceptional stuff. Excellent balance of power, elegance, mature fruit profile and long silky finish. Solid cellaring potential.... a new legacy for top Argentine Malbec has just been born....
