Pulenta Estate

X Gran Malbec 2018

9.1

If a wine does not meet your (high) expectations, is it a disappointment?? 🤔. Yeah, everything is relative. This six year old Gran Malbec was still super tight. Sharp, spicy oak tannins (lots of new French oak?) kept anything possibly underneath totally hidden. Although some greener notes came through early on and again later after about 2-3 hours of opening. So, yeah. Not balanced, very intense, limited lingering and single note. Agung will help for sure but not confident if this wine will ever fully shine. But don’t be down on Pulenta. Fantastic winery. We will visit this fall (their Spring) as Spoken Wines. Talking about Spoken Wines, have you seen our latest video story of Hartenberg?? And their incredible commitment to regenerative viticulture, lead by… cows!! Beautifully explained and demonstrated right in front of you by Wilhelm Joubert, the viticulturist. Check it out. And don’t miss the surprise at the end 😁. www.spokenwines.com — 4 months ago

Nature gamay of Beaujolais, all in fruit. Balanced and charming, the attack is supple, the body carries a certain intensity due to aged vines certainly .. the finish is short. A gourmet, juicy wine for friends.

Gamay nature du beaujolais tout en fruit. Équilibré et charmeur l’attaque est souple, le corp porte une certaine intensité due aux ceps de vieillie vignes certainement.. la finale est courte. Un vin de copain gourmand, juteux..
