Puesto del Marques - Malbec

  • Region: Santa Maria, Catamarca
  • Varietal: Malbec

Malbec is the flagship grape vine of Argentina, the country with the largest Malbec area in the world. The most outstanding characteristic of Malbec is its intense dark color. The aromas of Malbec are reminiscent of cherries, strawber-ries or plums, raisins and black pepper, in some cases reminiscent of cooked fruits. In the mouth, Malbec is warm, soft and sweet, with tannins that are not aggressive. When it is aged in wood, as in our cellar, it acquires shades of coffee, vanilla, coffee and chocolate.
