Old Vines Malbec
Region: Mendoza, Argentina
Production Methods: This Malbec is produced from grapes grown on old vines, which typically means vines that are 30 years or older. The older vines tend to produce lower yields of grapes with more concentrated flavors.
Tasting Notes: Expect a deep purple color with intense aromas of dark fruit like blackberry and plum, complemented by hints of chocolate, vanilla, and oak. The palate is rich and robust with velvety tannins and a long, smooth finish.
Food Pairings: Pairs well with grilled meats, particularly steak, lamb, and beef. Also complements rich, savory dishes like mushroom risotto or aged cheeses.
Additional Info: Old Vines Malbec has more complexity and depth due to the concentrated flavors in the grapes.
