The Capture 03 - Mendoza Malbec 2019
About the wine
Malbec taken to the extreme
- Argentinean Malbec is hot property now, so when we heard about the opportunity to work with some fantastic vineyards, a large chunk of which were over 80 years old, we jumped at the chance.
- The quest for Mendoza's best grapes takes winemaking to the extreme. Growers push into the Andes foothills, where higher altitudes encourage a balance of ripeness and freshness.
- The combination of old vines and extreme grape-growing practises are evident in this deep, rich Malbec. It's brimful of ripe blueberry fruit, shavings of dark chocolate and warm spice flavours balanced with an amazingly juicy finish.
