Malbec grapes

Malbec [ MAHL-bek ], originally from France, has become synonymous with Argentine winemaking, flourishing particularly in the Mendoza region. Known for its rich, deep flavors and velvety texture, the Malbec grape captivates with its distinctive characteristics:

  • Color & Texture : Deep, inky purple color, offering a striking visual experience. The texture is often described as “velvety” and combines a robust body with a smooth finish.
  • Flavor Profile : They typically present a delicious harmony of flavors, including ripe plum, blackberry and black cherry, often complemented by subtle notes of cocoa, vanilla and tobacco, especially when aged in oak.
  • Aroma : Malbec greets the nose with a bouquet of dark fruits, floral touches such as violet and earthy nuances, creating a complex and attractive aromatic profile.
  • Tannins and Acidity : Generally, Malbec wines have moderate acidity and high tannins, which contributes to their remarkable structure and makes them excellent candidates for aging.
