Get to know: Man Meets Mountain, Malbec
Tasting Note
A classic Argentinian Malbec aged for a short time in French oak barrels just to soften the tannins and bring the fruit together. There's an abundance of blueberrys, blackberries and ripe, juicy plums with a rich, warming finish.
Pair with barbequed and grilled red meats.
Kate Says
"This great value Malbec stands out for its pure fruit character. The vines are planted at the foothills of the Andes and the cooling breeze from the mountains ripens the grapes slowly for maximum flavour."
Producer Info
The quest for higher quality has seen Argentina's most ambitious winemakers push into the Andes foothills where the higher altitude and meagre soils produce the finest grapes. Man Meets Mountain is a project in Argentina made in conjunction with our consultant winemaker Sebastian San Martin.
The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks and concrete vats before 3 months spent in old french oak.
