    Hulk, which made its debut in 2011, comes from a vineyard planted in 1967. In its first vintages, it was harvested very early to accentuate the tart and fresh side of the variety in the Cordón del Plata zone of the Uco Valley, almost like the Semillon of Australia's Hunter Valley. That's now moderated, although it continues to have an accent on the acidity, which here has the strength to reveal refreshing flavors of fruits and herbs in a wine with tremendous fluidity and drinkability.

    From vines planted in 1960, in the Tupungato area, towards the north of the Uco Valley, this Criolla Grande is rich in flavors of red fruits mixed with herbs. The palate has a good texture of tannins. If you are looking for a red wine for grilled chorizo, you already found it.
