Los Cardos Malbec 2019 (Argentina)

Los Cardos Malbec 2019 (Argentina)

  • Intense
  • Red fruit 
  • Floral
  • Velvety finish

A deep violet red color in the glass, followed by intense, spicy and sweet aromas, with notes of red fruit and floral violet hints. In the mouth this Malbec wine is soft, velvety, fresh, and well balanced.

El Alto Vineyard is located in Ugarteche, in the southern part of Luján de Cuyo, at 1,050 meters (3,445 feet) above sea level. The soils range from sandy loam to clay loam, with variable content of stone. The climate typically presents warm days and cool nights, with an average temperature variation of 14 °C (57.2 °F) and an average annual rainfall of 250 mm (9.8 in). The vines yield 12 tons per hectare, and they are grown in espaliers, using drip irrigation. At Doña Paula, our vineyards have always been managed using sustainable agricultural practices.

The grapes are harvested from mid to late March. In the winery, they are first destemmed and softly crushed. A cold pre-fermentative maceration takes place to preserve the primary aromas. Then, the must is cooled and traditional fermentation starts. Post-fermentation maceration lasts between 10 and 15 days. Malolactic fermentation is carried out after maceration.

Food Pairing: Match with venison cannelloni with kale, parmesan & wild mushrooms.
