The wine region of Paraje Altamira
Pioneer Argentine IG 2013 (southern Uco Valley, La Consulta, 1,000-1,200 m, first technical GI): Malbec is the signature red king — elegant, mineral and slightly spicy with deep dark fruit aromas, characteristic chalky texture and unique identity, long ageing. Short alluvial soils (10-80 cm) sandy-loam on pebbly conglomerate covered with calcium carbonate, strong diurnal range, cool nights, Argentine finesse.
The wine region of Mendoza
World capital of Malbec: powerful, deep reds with blackberry, plum, violet and sweet spice, round tannins and vivid fruit. Also firm Cabernet Sauvignon, supple, juicy Bonarda, aromatic floral white Torrontés. High-altitude vineyards (800-1,700 m) at the foot of the Andes, dry continental climate irrigated by glacial waters. ~80% of Argentine output across 150,000 ha.
The word of the wine: Pommadé
Said of a wine that is unbalanced, pasty, syrupy, and whose excessive sugar content gives an impression of heaviness.
