Mayacaba

2008 Mendoza Malbec

Mi Terruno Mayacaba is a captivating expression of Malbec hailing from Mendoza, a region renowned for its exceptional winegrowing potential. This 2008 vintage impresses with its deep red color, hinting at the richness and intensity that awaits. On the palate, it embodies a full-bodied character, seamlessly balanced by vibrant acidity that brightens each sip, creating a mouthwatering experience. The fruit intensity is plentiful, showcasing ripe berry notes that are both prominent and inviting. Accompanying this luscious fruit are firm tannins that provide structure and depth, making the wine feel bold yet refined. This red is distinctly dry, allowing the complexity of flavors to shine without overwhelming sweetness. Ideal for pairing with hearty dishes, Mi Terruno Mayacaba is a testament to the artistry of Mendoza winemaking.

Mendoza

Mendoza is the heart of Argentinian wine production. It was here where a previously little-known French grape variety called Malbec became a global superstar. With its extreme altitudes and Andean climate, Mendoza nurtures its vineyards in dramatic sun-drenched plateaus set against snow-capped peaks. At these elevations, the intense UV light ripens grapes in a unique way, working with the cold mountain air to create gloriously supple and expressive wines with bold yet brightly aromatic fruit. Mendoza's high-quality varietals from Bonarda, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are also notable, as are its fine Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from sub-regions such as Maipú, Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley.
