Don Rodolfo
MALBEC
Mendoza, Argentina
The art of the Andes is captured in this Argentinian Malbec from Mendoza's Lujan de Cuyo Valley. The soils of Lujan de Cuyo are composed predominantly of loose sand over clay and rock which provide excellent free-draining qualities allowing our vines to be stressed. With natural irrigation from the pure water source of the snow melt of the Andes Mountains, our vines produce premium red wines with rich color, full body and true varietal character.
This handcrafted 2020 Malbec is a burst of dark cherry and blackberry with a rich, plush finish. A great pairing with any type of hard cheese such as Manchego, or barbequed meat dish with cracked black pepper.
Argentina is a country where its people love to express themselves. Embracing art as a language, locals do this through the rich cuisine, vibrant music and eye-catching street art. This dynamic culture continually inspires on a daily basis and Don Rodolfo Art of the Andes wines embrace this lifestyle in each and every one of its handcrafted wines. The vineyards, situated at the base of the Andes in the Lujan de Cuyo and Uco Valleys and at 3,500-5,000 feet above sea level, are exposed to hot days and cold nights, forcing the vines to struggle, resulting in lower yields and more concentrated wines.
