What Malbec tastes like
Near-black colour, aromas of plum, blackberry and violet, notes of cocoa and spice, generous body and softer tannins than Cabernet. Young wines are fruity and direct; barrel-aged ones are deeper and age-worthy.
Malbec
Malbec from Mendoza, from the Uco Valley to Gualtallary, and from French Cahors, its birthplace: intense reds with black fruit and violet, perfect with grilled meat.

Malbec: Buy Online with Home Delivery
Malbec was born in France, but it was in Argentina that it became a star. Today it is synonymous with the reds of Mendoza: intense, juicy and perfect with grilled meat. Delivered in 2–4 working days from Marbella, free from €100.
From Cahors to the Andes
Its birthplace is Cahors in south-west France, where it makes dark, firm reds. In Mendoza, at the foot of the Andes, the high-altitude vineyards of the Uco Valley, such as Gualtallary, Altamira and La Consulta, give fresh, floral Malbecs, while Agrelo and Las Compuertas produce riper styles. Patagonia, in Río Negro, offers fresher, more elegant versions.
FAQ
Argentinian Malbec is fruitier, softer and easier to drink; Cahors is more austere, tannic and earthy.
