About This Wine

Miguel Aime Pouget

Limited Release Malbec

Receiving 95 points and awarded Best of Class Malbec by the New World International Wine Competition, Miguel Aime 2016 Malbec is one of the finest Argentine wines we've ever been able to procure for our members. Named in honor of Miguel Aime Pouget, the botanist and vintner who introduced French grapes to Mendoza, this is truly the ideal Argentine Malbec.

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.
