Product Notes

Salentein Barrel Selection Malbec is a superb Argentinian wine. The vines from the Uco Valley give life to a wine of intense red ruby colour, conferring excellent maturity and elegance. Its bold, intense bouquet envelopes senses in ripe red fruit, pepper and vanilla spice, hinting at its complex palate. A perfect blend of sweet tannins and sharp acidity, it exudes plush flavours of blackberry, plum, and chocolate, bolstered by a firm, oaky backdrop. Drinking well now or for cellaring, this Malbec pairs perfectly with robust meat dishes, serving as an appealing testament to Argentinian viticulture.

Tasting Notes

Deep red-purple coloured wine, very intense nose with notes of ripe blackberry, blueberry and redcurrant, with subtle hints of violet. The silky palate has a crisp, balancing acidity which shows the fruit and floral notes backed by vanilla on the lingering finish.
