rather than sanding it down with wood

Finca Abril Alhambra Malbec Reserva 2021 070226CHILL Saperavi aged with the skinsFinca Abril is a small, family run estate in Mendoza's Uco Valley, founded in 1996 around a parcel of vines that have been there since 1922 over 3,400 feet up in the Andean foothills, where cold nights and dry air do the work modern winemaking sometimes overdoes. The Alhambra is the entry into the range: certified organic single vineyard Malbec, hand harvested, fermented in stainless tanks, with a portion aged in French oak and the rest left to rest
