one of the most untouched, terroir-driven malbecs made in argentina is achaval-ferrer's altamira. it's harvested about three weeks earlier than most high-end fruit, resulting in core raspberry flavors and a certain redness of character. the wine is unfined and cloudy but still very clear on the palate, with length, power and class. best from 2009–2012.
