Description
The Uco Valley is one of Argentina’s most important wine regions. Approximately 45 miles long and 22 miles wide, the valley follows the course of the Tunuyan River. The area has seen significant growth and investment over the last 20 years and is now home to some of the country’s top producers. Benefitting from the cooler climate and excellent soil offered by higher altitude vineyards, the region produces spectacular Malbec with a distinctive floral nose. It’s also responsible for some of Mendoza’s finest Chardonnay and Torrontes.
An estate-bottled Malbec sourced from specially selected vineyards in Mendoza and 50% aged in French oak. ‘Malbicho’, in Argentine slang, is someone different, who does not respect the rules. The spirit of this wine is to be unique, different, expressive, so it is encouraged to challenge the established way of doing things.
