"A sunny wine straight from Argentina, for immediate pleasure!

"A fruity, juicy Malbec with a rich nose of red cherries, strawberries, plums and herbs. Round, fresh and supple on the palate, with a subtle saline touch to the fruit. The tannins are supple but present. Fruity finish. Drink now. (James Suckling 2023) - A great deal in Mendoza!

About the wine:

Malbec Festivo 2022 comes from Campo Los Andes in the Uco valley. Garnet-red color. The ripe, fruity nose offers notes of plum jam and quince. Fleshy and indulgent on the palate, with firm tannins, precedes a persistent finish of ripe fruit. This is a red wine bursting with sunshine. 2023-2028
