Tasting Notes

High Note Red Blend is a sensual assemblage of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. It displays intense dark fruit aromas and unctuous flavors of crushed blueberries, chocolate, vanilla, and playful spice.

Vineyard Notes

The cooler climate in the higher elevations of the Uco Valley produces wines with bright acidity, fresh aromas, and an unmistakable personality. High Note's grapes are sourced from five carefully selected vineyards ranging in elevation from 3,300 – 5,000 feet above sea level:

Gualtallary: The high altitudes deliver deep purple wines with fruity and floral notes.
Vista Flores: Contributes flavors of spice, red fruits, and minerality.
La Consulta: Adds black fruit and mid-palate weight.
Altamira: Brings violet notes to the aroma.
Eugenio Bustos: Provides the wine with racy acidity and floral notes.

Importer's Notes

Argentina is a country of unique and dramatic landscapes where innovation and tradition collide. It is an eclectic melting pot where diverse cultures inspire passion and energy. Music, dance, food, and high-altitude viticulture all resonate with High Note’s vibrant and revolutionary spirit. Inspired by the passion and energy of its Argentine roots, High Note honors the music that represents Argentina’s lively culture.

High Note label design provokes interest through evocative imagery and symbolism:

Music, dance, culture – The violin and bandoneón symbolize the passion of the tango and those who surrender to it.
Cloud- Wrapped mountains, sea shells, and the Andean condor represent Argentina’s sweep from  the Andes to the Atlantic coast.
The Ceibo – Argentina’s national flower (located in the woman’s hair on the Malbec label) reminds us of the great abundance of Argentinian flora.

Born in the Uco Valley with the Revolutionary Spirit of Argentina.
