Sylvestra wines show typicity, varietal power and careful elaboration from the Bressia family with the character, freshness and rebelliousness of the new generation. Fruity aromas, floral memories and authentic flavors - here is the expression of Sylvestra, with no oak, just fruit.
Sylvestra Malbec offers a very attractive ruby red color with dark tones. Aromas of black fruits, cherries and raspberries, spicy notes of red pepper. The palate is fresh, fruity and well-balanced, with sweet and ripe tannins.
"The 2021 Malbec Sylvestra from the Uco Valley is purple in color with a diaphanous but expressive fruity nose featuring fresh plum, hints of blackberry and violet over a bed of herbs. Intense in the mouth, the polished tannins are lifted up by the juicy freshness which also injects energy and tension before the fruity finish. - Joaquín Hidalgo"

"Aromas of blackcurrant, sweet tobacco, mocha and burnt orange. It’s medium-bodied with velvety tannins. Juicy finish. Delicious now."

"Jammy raspberry and red plum aromas are friendly but a touch soft and short on concentration. A medium-full palate is pulpy and jammy, with plum, blackberry and herbal flavors that seem tomato-influenced. Nothing on the finish moves the dial; drink now. - MICHAEL SCHACHNER"

"100% grapes from Vista Flores, in the Uco Valley, with a clearly defined expression of vines grown on the slopes of the Andes. A wine that’s deliciously fresh, floral, with nice acidity, brimming with red fruit flavors."
