This full-bodied red wine boasts a remarkable balance of ripe fruit intensity, leaning towards blackberries and dark plums, complemented by subtle notes of spice and floral undertones. Its high acidity adds a refreshing brightness, enhancing its mouthwatering quality, while the tannins are firm yet well-integrated, providing structure without overwhelming the palate. The wine's overall dryness makes it incredibly food-friendly, pairing beautifully with grilled meats and rich, savory dishes.

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.
