Tasting notes: Pablo y Walter Malbec
Pablo y Walter Malbec. A really pure expression of Malbec. Deep red almost purple in colour and wonderfully aromatic with lifted violet, red currant and cassis notes. Muy, muy fantasticó – richly bloody, vibrant, Latin and velveteen.
Food Match:
A juicy steak, churrasco de chorizo marinated with garlic, parsley and olive oil, grilled vegetables with chimichurri sauce. Or try it chilled – seriously, a cool version of this wine opens up a whole new world!
Region/Producer:
A celebration of Mendoza – the colour, culture and flavour and a celebration of friendship.Visit Mendoza in Argentina and you can’t help but be struck by the vibrant street life of this exciting city.
Produced from 25 year old vines in the Agrelo district of Mendoza, close to Walter’s bodega in the rain-shadow of the Cordon del Plata. The unwooded Malbec vinified in stainless steel to preserve the freshness and brightness of the fruit. Walter bought three spankingly new 25000-litre steel tanks specifically for this project. And subsequently somehow crow-barred them into his small family bodega.
Malbec is a purple grape variety used in making red wine. The grapes tend to have an inky dark colour and robust tannins, and are known as one of the six grapes allowed in the blend of red Bordeaux wine,
