Description

"Pristine and fragrant, the inviting bouquet shows dark plum, blueberry compote, vanilla and dark chocolate characters with a hint of dried herb complexity. The palate is beautifully weighted and succulent, and delivers fleshy mouthfeel and silky texture, wonderfully structured by supple tannins. The wine is immediate and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, April 2017

Trapiche Prue Malbec displays intense aromas of red fruits such as plums and cherries with a subtle touch of spice. Great fruit concentration marked by a mineral character leading to an elegant finish.

100% Malbec selected vineyards in the Uco valley, Province of Mendoza, where the grapes are hand harvested. Then bunch selection, destemming and berry selection followed by fermentation with wild yeasts and maceration in small concrete vats, during a minimum of 15 days at 25-27ºC. Pneumatic pressing and natural malolactic  fermentation. Finally ageing sur lies in concrete vats during 8 months.

Food Pairing: The ideal wine for grilled meat. It also combines very well with pasta, stews and game.
