About This Wine
PrimaZona
Malbec
This returning member favorite is an especially exciting pick up for our experts. With the average vineyard sitting thousands of feet above sea level temperatures can swing drastically between day and night. These swings keep an optimum amount of acidity in the grapes while allowing sugars to develop, resulting in an elegant and balanced wine. The PrimaZona is bright, with tastes of dark fruit and an elegant finish. We think that this wine has just the right amount of ripeness with a vibrant touch of acidity and fine, easy tannins. At the back of the wine lies a beautiful perfume of florals. We think it is fantastic when paired with anything on the grill. And it won a Gold at the 2018 Denver International Wine Competition!
Here's a recent tasting review from The Terroirist:
"Light purple color. Aromas of dark plums and black cherries, along with violets, warm clay, tobacco, cedar, espresso. Fresh acidity on the palate frames the wine nicely, and it has velvety, accessible tannins. Tangy black cherries, plums, raspberry jam, the fruit is mixed with cola, coffee, sweet pipe tobacco and vanilla. Fun, pleasant, widely-likeable stuff."

This elegant Malbec is full of bright red fruits that are helped out by the bright acidity of the wine. It makes it very simple to pair with chicken and more oily fish. Try this Malbec with and without food and see which way you like it best!
