Sombrero Malbec 2023

Mendoza, Argentina

Malbec · 2023 · 14.5% abv

Bright ruby with hints of blue. Fresh red berries and wild black fruit lead into a plush palate, with velvety tannins and a sweet-fruited core that lingers long.

Production

Grapes are cold-soaked for three days, fermented over 15, then macerated for five days post-ferment. Aged nine months in oak and six in bottle to enhance texture and depth.

Vineyard

From estate vineyards in Gualtallary where poor, stony soils and strong Andean sunlight yield fruit with intensity and lift. High altitude ensures natural balance and aromatic complexity.

Pairing

Perfect for Argentine asado — grilled beef ribs, chorizo and empanadas served fireside. Also works with duck breast or charred aubergine dishes.
