Robusto

2011 Mendoza Malbec

The Vicentin Robusto, a delightful Malbec from the renowned Mendoza region, showcases a deep red hue that captivates the eye. This 2011 vintage exudes a full-bodied character with a richness that envelops the palate, perfectly balanced by its bright acidity that adds liveliness to the overall experience. The fruit intensity is prominent, with luscious notes of dark berries and plum intertwining with subtle hints of spice and chocolate. Tannins in this wine are firm yet well-integrated, providing a structural backbone that enhances its complexity. As a dry wine, it leaves a clean finish, making it an ideal companion for hearty dishes or a cozy evening by the fireplace.

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.
