Corte A or “Blend A” is primarily composed of Malbec and a smaller amount of Bonarda from vines planted in 1948 along with a dash of Cabernet Sauvignon. Vistalba’s vineyards sit at an impressive 980 metres above sea level where conditions are ideal for producing smooth, well-rounded reds thanks to the sunny days and cooler nights.
Once in the winery the varieties are vinified separately with a small proportion of Malbec and Bonarda fermented together. The young wine then ages in French oak barrels for 18 months, adding hints of spice, tobacco leaf and vanilla to the rich dark plum, chocolate and berry notes from the grapes. The full body, firm tannins and long finish make this a great wine to cellar for a while longer or enjoy now alongside hearty red meat dishes.

First shipment lost by FedEx, but Wine Chateau quickly sent another shipment. This wine is my wife and I's absolute favorite with red meat.
This vintage is my wife and I's favorite with dinner and after dinner. Best available price.
Have tried multiple vintages of Vista Alba Corte A. 2011 is spectacular but hard to come by. The 2018 is big and iflavorful with a nice finish. Let it breathe for a bit and it really has a fine finish.
We tested this wine in Argentina, in February and was amazing. I bought 6 bottles in your company, but the wine not met our expectations.
