More information about 2021 Argento Reserva Malbec
The best grapes from the Alto Agrelo and La Consulta/Mendoza vineyards are used for this Reserva. The result is a purple-red, juicy yet elegant wine that will delight everyone. This wine matured for 9 months in 60% American and 40% French barrique barrels. On the nose it shows lots of plum, black cherries and light notes of violets. Velvety on the palate with a fine tannin structure, the maturation in wood gives it a delicate vanilla nuance, everything is extremely harmonious and the finish is surprisingly long and very elegant.
The vineyards in Argentina are often located at over 500 meters above sea level and thus benefit from the cooling influence of the Andes. Similar to Chile, plenty of sunshine during the day and cool temperatures at night provide almost ideal conditions for complex wines. One major problem, however, is hail in summer, which can sometimes destroy entire grape harvests. Mendoza is considered the cradle of Argentinian viticulture and is still regarded as the most important wine-growing region today. Malbec is considered a typical Argentine grape variety and is not grown anywhere else in the world as frequently as here.
