Description

This excellent Malbec presents ripe blackberries and plums on the nose, accented by hints of violet and spice. The palate is plush and full-bodied, offering layers of dark fruit, cocoa and a touch of black pepper. Well-integrated tannins provide structure without overwhelming, while a subtle smokiness lingers on the finish. This is a polished yet approachable Malbec, ideal for grilled meats or rich stews. A great expression of Mendoza’s terroir, combining boldness with elegance.

La Cayetana

La Cayetana is a historic estate dating back to the late 1700s, expanded in 1865 and 1949. Restored in 2013 by Emilia and Eduardo Soler of Ver Sacrum wines, it hosts an experimental vineyard, vine nursery, and contemporary art. They cultivate Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Pedro Giménez (Criolla Blanca), blending ancient biological aging with modern viticulture. La Cayetana honours tradition and sustainability, reviving Los Vinos de la Tierra de la Cruz de Piedra with bold vision and care.

Mendoza

Mendoza, Argentina's most renowned wine region, is synonymous with exceptional winemaking and world-class wines. Nestled at the foothills of the Andes, Mendoza's high-altitude vineyards benefit from abundant sunshine, cool nights, and minimal rainfall, creating perfect conditions for grape cultivation. The area is particularly famous for its Malbec, offering rich, full-bodied wines with dark fruit flavours and a velvety texture. It also excels in producing excellent Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Torrontés. The diverse terroir, with its variety of soils and microclimates, imparts a unique character to its wines. Mendoza remains a must-visit destination for wine lovers seeking outstanding and memorable wines.
