Distillery Information

To recap, Malbec is a full-bodied red wine that originated in France but grows mainly in Argentina. While French Malbec is more savory and tart, with firm tannins and flavors of plum and leather, Argentinian Malbec is more fruit-forward, with a velvety texture and flavors of cocoa and plum.
It is made from carefully selected grapes from vineyards aged between 30 and 50 years old. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels and then additionally in bottles before release. The harmonious coexistence of fruit and wood over time has made this a great wine, characterized by elegance and complexity.
If you're new to the world of Malbec, you'd be forgiven for thinking that Argentina is its true home. However, while 75% of the world's Malbec comes from Argentina, Malbec originated from France and is produced in a number of other countries across the world.is the must-have grape of the moment. Many of the best come from Argentina (like HJ Fabre's Trophy winner below) but don't forget the dark wines of Cahors in southern France where it is known as Cot.
Malbec is a wine produced from the grape of the same name. It is most often a red wine, but like all other red varieties, it can be made into white and rosé, too. Historically, white Malbec was a rarity, and while it still is, there are a handful of examples notably being produced in Argentina.Malbec wines usually consist of 13-14% alcohol. This is comparable to Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Chardonnay.Malbec grapes are small and dark in color with very thick skins, producing a wine that has rich fruity flavors and medium tannin levels. A unique characteristic of Malbec wine that differentiates it from other red wines is its distinct taste profile. Malbec wine offers a beautiful balance between fruit and acidity.
