Product Notes

Mendel Malbec is an exquisite Argentinian wine offering intense, ripe dark fruits and floral undertones, complemented by subtle hints of French oak. Deep ruby red in colour, its velvety tannins and robust structure meet a complex palate of plums and blackberries, with a full-bodied, lingering finish. The careful craftsmanship preserves the integrity of the fruit, without sacrificing the wine’s robust, aromatic complexity. A distinguished wine with a rich heritage, Mendel Malbec is an epitome of refinement and time-honoured tradition, offering a delightful experience to both seasoned connoisseurs and new wine enthusiasts alike. It is a fine embodiment of noble Argentinian viticulture.

Tasting Notes

Colour: Intense, bright red, violet at the rim. Nose: Complex, elegant and very intense. The wine shows a perfect combination of fresh red fruit such as black cherries, raspberries and blackberries. Spice touches and licorice hints contribute complexity. The ageing in French oak masterfully integrates subtle vanilla and caramel nuances. Palate: Pleasant attack. The aromas on the palate are harmonious and persistent. It is a balanced, refreshing and very easy-to-drink wine which boasts a lingering finish.
