Calibre
Mendoza, Argentina
An outstanding Malbec from Argentine’s most celebrated wine region
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Calibre
Malbec
We are always seeking new vintages from Argentina’s Uco Valley, one of the world’s most celebrated Malbec regions. After tasting hundreds of wines, we found what we were searching for in Calibre 2014, a truly unique Malbec from a vineyard that has proved to be a hidden gem. Calibre Wines was formed following the discovery of a single estate in the small Argentine town of La Consulta with a terroir unlike any other in the region. Fed by the pure mountain water of the Tunuyan river, the grapes of La Consulta possess the balance and depth of flavor necessary for producing Calibre 2014, a Malbec of exceptional quality.
Due to state registrations, we cannot ship this wine to CT.ABOUT THIS WINE

WINE REGION:
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.
