Winemaker Notes
Intense red color with violet tones. Aromas of wild berry and dark plum with a hint of coffee. Berry and plum continue to the palate with smoke and vanilla joining through the persistent finish. Pairs well with red meat entrees, Beef Wellington, roasted leg of lamb, grilled vegetables, and semi-firm cheeses.

COMMENTARY: The 2017 Antigal Winery & Estates Uno Malbec offers attractive richness without any hard edges. TASTING NOTES: This wine is beautifully balanced with aromas and flavors of black fruit, licorice, and spice. Serve it with savory meat stews. (Tasted: December 31, 2020, San Francisco, CA)

Attractive aromas of wild berry fruits, lavender and cardamom give this Malbec a sense of exotic quality. A full hard-driving palate is intense at first and then it coasts. Flavors of black olive,dark plum and savory spices are earthy, salty, mildly complex and impressive through the finish line.Cork Alliance. Best Buy

Antigal Winery was established on the site of a historic winery in Maipú, Mendoza - Argentina, whose origin dates back to 1897. For this reason, the winery was named "Antigal"; it is a creole word that means "very old". With its completed refurbishment, the winery achieved the very best in high-tech functionality while respecting colonial architecture's original appearance.
The vineyards located at the Andes Mountain range foothills are uniquely planned relative to their terroir, elevation, and topography, obtaining the highest quality grapes.
The wines have been under the dedicated supervision of winemaker, Miriam Gomez. She is one of Argentina's most talented and accomplished winemakers. Her passion and dedication are reflected through all stages of winemaking, resulting in unusually elegant wines.
