The Land
Finca Adalgisa produces a singular expression of Malbec from their historic 2-acre vineyard in Chacras de Coria, Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, Argentina. This vineyard, planted in 1916, showcases the Furlotti family's deep connection to the land. Situated at an altitude of 3,000 feet, the vines benefit from the region's unique mesoclimate and the alluvial, sandy loam soils. The vineyard, farmed organically, is carefully managed to produce low yields of exceptional fruit. The history of the vineyard is evident in the wines they produce.
The Wine
This 2017 Malbec offers a complex and layered profile. On the nose, it presents aromas of ripe blackberries, warm blueberry pancakes, and maraschino cherries. These are beautifully interwoven with baking spices of clove, cinnamon, sage, licorice, and cedar. Light hints of orange peel, eucalyptus, white powdered sugar, and red velvet cake add further complexity. The palate reveals integrated earth components of soil, dry crushed leaves, and a vibrant, alive quality. The wine's finish is long and persistent, exhibiting a harmonious balance of fruit, spice, and earth. This is a wine with a Bordelaise structure and elegance, crafted for those who appreciate depth and nuance.
The People
Finca Adalgisa is a family-run estate that spans three generations of the Furlotti family. Gabriela Furlotti continues her family's tradition by overseeing the boutique hotel and the vineyard, with a dedication to producing an exceptional Malbec. The winemaking is a collaborative effort with the beloved Carmelo Patti, who focuses on balance and the expression of terroir. With a tradition of bottle aging before release, Adalgisa produces less than 500 cases per year. This small production ensures a focus on quality and a commitment to expressing the unique character of this very special place.
