Viñalba ′Gran Reservado′ Malbec 2019/20, Mendoza

Argentinian Malbec has come a long way. Before winemaker Hervé J Fabre arrived during the 1990’s, the grape was used solely as a blending grape. Seeing its incredible potential, he became the first winemaker to champion its use on its own. This is Viñalba’s flagship wine. It has rich stewed summer-fruit flavours and soft vanilla and floral notes. Intense yet smooth tannins provide a long finish, and make it a great match for a meaty steak pie. Decant first for maximum effect.
