The Show Malbec (argentina) 2023

The Show Malbec has a deep red, nearly purple color, with aromatics of dried herbs, crushed dark berries, with notes of black pepper and stems. Quite brooding, but pure and focused. The velvety tannins are super integrated and smooth, but with terrific balance and finish that gives it unusual length in the palate. 100% of the fruit was organically farmed and the following is where it all comes from: 71% Malbec from Alto Agrelo, 14% Malbec from La Consulta, 7.5% Cabernet Sauvignon from Ugarteche, 7.5% Cabernet Franc from Alto Agrelo. All the fermentations were done in concrete tanks with native yeast and 2+ weeks on the skins post fermentation. The Show Malbec received 91 points from James Suckling in 2021. This wine pairs well with steak, pork, and lamb, as well as fattier fish like salmon and poultry with dark meat. This bottle of wine has 14.3% alcohol by volume.
