Written Notes

Argentine Malbec has become one of the most reliably juicy, lush, fruit-crammed reds that money can buy (and not for all that much money, either). Even bargain basement Malbec tastes reasonably good. But this one is definitely not bargain basement – it’s just fantastically good value – a very different matter altogether.

Mendoza’s vineyards sweep away from the mighty Andes for miles, and they can get pretty hot. But there is a hidden valley that creeps up towards the mountains, getting ever colder the higher you go, even though the sun still shines relentlessly. This is the Uco Valley.
And this is where Viñalba grow their Malbec grapes. The cool conditions mean that the grapes retain a mouthwatering, crunchy cranberry skin freshness, while the sun ripens the dark fruit to scented raspberry and red plum spiciness, just dabbed with a hint of the rocky vineyard soil the grapes were grown in.
