Mellizos Single Block Malbec
14.5% ABV · $60 USD
Deep red color with violet hues. Aromas of black fruits, pepper, and roses, coupled with notes of vanilla, chocolate, and tobacco. A complex wine, long and structured with wide and balanced tannins, and a long end with a velvety texture.
2023 was a slightly cooler year than average for Mendoza, resulting in excellent concentration and ripeness of the skins, with optimal acidity. Moderate temperature, sunny days, and low rainfall produced Malbec grapes of exceptional quality and health.
100% spontaneous malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks using native yeasts, no additives. Aged 15 months in 100% new French oak barrels.
Only 1,000 bottles produced this vintage, hand-picked from a 1-acre block at 3,300 ft elevation at the foot of the Andes Mountains.
Grilled beef, roasted lamb, hearty stews, aged hard cheeses
