Malbec

When we say old vine, we're talking 65 years. This brings an amazing concentration of fruit and complexity to the wine. The 2017 vintage, made by leading winemaker Karim Mussi Saffie, is a rich, dynamic wine with ripe dark fruit, plum and raisin flavours and well integrated tannins.

Plenty of accolades for the 2018 Ano Cero Malbec, including 91 Parker Points! Whole berry fermentation produces rich and concentrated dark fruits, whilst 10 months in French oak allows the wine to develop a soft, savoury edge and silky smooth tannins.

A stunning Malbec packed full of ripe red and black fruit mixed with spicy notes of vanilla, cloves and cinnamon from ageing in French and American oak. A beautifully concentrated wine with sweet tannins and a velvety texture. A great Malbec from Vina Cobos, we love it!

'Malbec has a deserved reputation for creating great, rich, heady mouthfuls of blockbusting power. Well, Malbec IS good at that. But that's not all Malbec does. Plant the grapes high up into the Andes foothills, where the sun is bright, the vines are cooled by breezes hurrying down from the snow-capped peaks, and where the nights can be icy. Farm the grapes organically leaving nature to deal with any crises - in fact, make yourself Argentina's leading organic producer - and then craft the wine without oak barrel-aging - and you get a completely different experience.

This wine isn't a blockbuster, a palate-whacker. This is fabulously fresh, with the uplifting juiciness of an English market garden, ripe strawberries, red cherries, luscious red plums, just flecked with pepper and herbs, and finishing with the lingering scent of an orchard in bloom.'

The award-winning Signature Organic Malbec is from the high altitude vineyards of the Uco Valley. Blackberry, blackcurrant and plum flavours combine with figs and chocolate to give a complex, long finish.

From vineyards in the foothills of the Andes, Despacito Malbec is an unoaked, fruit driven wine. Plenty of soft plum and blackberry character. A real crowd pleaser.

A cracking label, and a cracking wine. From the much sought-after La Consulta region in the Uco Valley, the Hermandad Malbec is a full bodied, rich wine with ripe black fruits, rich cherries and juicy plum flavours, along with hints of violets and vanilla. Lovely silky texture and a long finish.

The Kaiken Ultra is a true expression of Malbec from the high altitude Uco Valley, showing interesting spicy and floral notes. It's fresh, well-balanced and offers a super smooth finish.

Bodega Los Haroldos utilises high altitude to impart character and freshness into its wines. Kaleu Malbec is super soft and silky, and packed with redcurrant and bramble fruit.

This tasty red blend is from Tupungato, the northernmost sub-region of the Uco Valley in Mendoza. Delicate spices, ripe plums and cherries are balanced by refreshing acidity.

From the Bodega Los Haroldos family of wines, the Chacabuco Malbec delivers loads of plum and black cherry fruit, a hint of spice and soft, smooth tannins on the finish.

From selected parcels in the Uco Valley, the Los Olivos Malbec is soft and fruity with notes of blackberry, plums and a little white pepper. 2018 was a great year in the Uco Valley and this really shines through.

The Luigi Bosca Signature Malbec has the best of both worlds, with grapes from Lujan de Cuyo and Uco Valley. Lujan brings ripeness and sweet tannins to the wine, while Uco Valley ensures a lively freshness. The 2018 has lovely red plum notes, hints of spice and smooth, silky tannins.

Holy Moly, this is soooo good! Made just like a Port, but with Malbec grapes. It's rich and concentrated with dark brambly fruit, hints of dried figs and raisins, a touch of spice and superbly balanced sweetness. This will be a delight with your cheeseboard or chocolate pud!

The 2017 Rutini Collection Cabernet Malbec is stunning. Aromatic and complex, with concentrated aromas of red cherry and plum. The palate is full, with rich red fruit flavours, a touch of vanilla and a long, lingering finish.

A showcase of Argentina's star grape; from simple and fruit driven to punchy and powerful. The case of 6 wines includes:

- Los Poetas Malbec 2017 
- Malbrontes Malbec 2018
- Zuccardi Q Malbec 2017 
- Susana Balbo Anubis Malbec 2019
- Vina Cobos Felino Malbec 2018
- Hermandad Malbec 2016 

The fruit for the Anubis Malbec comes from vineyards in Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza. The 2019 shows elegance, with delicate raspberry and blackcurrant fruit, good acidity, and a hint of vanilla. 

This delightful sweet red wine is made from mature, late harvest, raisin like Malbec grapes. Plenty of blackcherry, cloves, cinnamon and dark chocolate notes on the palate with a long, lingering finish. Amazing with dark chocolate puds!

Susana's Signature Malbec has a dash of Cabernet Sauvignon to give it extra complexity. It's beautifully structured, with flavours of raspberry, plums and currants, as well as lovely hint of smoke. It's rich, velvety and everything you'd expect from a top quality Malbec.
