Winemaker Notes
Purplish red color. On the nose, it displays aromas reminiscent of plums and blackberries with a hint of vanilla granted by its oak aging. In the mouth, it is a fruity wine with very good structure and silky tannins.
It is an ideal wine to match grilled or roast red meat, pasta with red sauces and semi hard cheeses.
Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
