Winemaker/Distributor’s notes: With this wine, Martin wanted to showcase the vibrant, fresh, and fruit driven side of Malbec. The fruit is grown at 3800 feet in Tupungato, one of the biggest departments in the Uco Valley with a diverse array of alluvial soils, crossed by many rivers and river beds. Wines from Tupungato tend to have very expressive aromas because of the sun exposure, and yet they are lighter bodied with much more skin and bone than muscle with an austere mid palate, depending on the soil composition.
A nose full of plums, cherries, and violet, the latter of which is typical of he Uco Valley region. On the palate, it’s very juicy with a nice grip and plenty of tension and verve. The finish is long and elegant.
Pair it with steak, lamb chops, burgers, smoky BBQ, and aged cheddar cheese.
Region: Valle de Uco, Tupungato (a sub-region of Mendoza), Argentina
