Description

Imagine the majestic Andes, their snow-capped peaks piercing the sky. That’s the spirit captured in Punto Alto Malbec. Sourced from the high-altitude vineyards of Mendoza, Argentina, this wine embodies the raw beauty and intensity of its origin. The name "Punto Alto" translates to "High Point," and this Malbec truly reaches a high point in flavor and quality.

Crafted with meticulous attention, Punto Alto Malbec offers a vibrant expression of the Malbec grape. The high altitude vineyards contribute to the wine's concentrated flavors and elegant structure. The cooler temperatures at these altitudes allow the grapes to ripen slowly, developing a complex array of aromas and flavors. You will be greeted by aromas of ripe black fruits such as plum and blackberry, interwoven with subtle hints of violet and spice. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with smooth tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The fruit flavors are balanced by a refreshing acidity, making it a versatile wine for pairing with a wide range of dishes.

This is more than just a wine; it's an experience. It's the perfect companion for grilled meats, empanadas, and aged cheeses. The wine's fruity character complements the richness of grilled steak, while its subtle spice notes enhance the flavors of chorizo. For a vegetarian option, try it with roasted vegetables or a hearty lentil stew. The wine's smooth tannins and balanced acidity make it a delightful partner for many culinary creations.

Punto Alto Malbec is a testament to the unique terroir of Mendoza and the passion of the winemakers who craft it. It's a wine that embodies the spirit of adventure and the pursuit of excellence. Serve this red wine at a temperature of 16°C to highlight the best flavors. This wine is ready to enjoy now, with no need to decant before serving. Each sip takes you higher up the Andes, with a delightful taste experience.
