Detail
Although found in small amounts growing in Bordeaux, Malbecs real home has become Mendoza, Argentina. Its here where you can stand in the vineyards and watch the sunset behind the magnificent Andes Mountains and drink the best Malbec in the world. Snow melt from the peaks of the mountains provides just enough water for Malbec to thrive in the warm valleys of Mendoza. A combination of hot days and cool nights push the grapes to develop rich and intense flavors while maintaining balanced sugar and acidity. This wine exhibits robust flavors of blackberry, black cherry compote with a slight hint of mocha yielding a velvety finish of very fine and supple tannins refined by oak aging for nine months. Food Pairing: Roasted Rib of Beef BBQ Kebabs Tacos Al Pastor Cheese Pairing: Strong blues such as Roquefort or Point Reyes
