Reserve

2008 Mendoza Malbec

The Pascual Toso Reserve Malbec from the 2008 vintage showcases the distinct characteristics of Mendoza, Argentina. This red wine presents a rich and full-bodied experience, offering expressive fruit-forward notes of dark plum and blackberry intermingled with hints of cocoa and spice. Its high acidity lends a refreshing quality, perfectly complementing its robust flavor profile. The tannins are notably firm yet smooth, providing structure and longevity, making it an excellent choice for pairing with hearty dishes. With a dry character that enhances its complexity, this Malbec not only delights the palate but also embodies the true essence of Mendoza's enchanting terroir.

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.
