Malbec 2023

Vineyards

Produced from 25-year-old vines in Argentina’s Uco Valley, this Malbec comes from vineyards nestled in the rain shadow of the Cordon del Plata mountain range. The high-altitude location, with warm days and cool nights, enhances the aromatic intensity and pure fruit character of the Malbec grapes.

Winemaking

This Malbec is vinified in stainless steel tanks, with no oak influence, to preserve the freshness and vibrancy of the fruit. Walter sourced three new 25,000-litre stainless steel tanks specifically for this project, ensuring the wine retains its bold, unwooded style. This approach captures a bright, authentic expression of Malbec, true to its Argentine roots.

Appearance

A deep red with a striking purple hue.

Nose

Wonderfully aromatic with lifted notes of violet, red currant, and cassis that bring a fresh and inviting bouquet.

Palate

Richly textured and velvety, showcasing flavours of ripe red currants, cassis, and a hint of violet. The wine is vibrant, with a smooth mouthfeel and a lingering, juicy finish.

Food pairing

A perfect match for a juicy steak, churrasco de chorizo marinated in garlic, parsley, and olive oil, or grilled vegetables with chimichurri. For a refreshing twist, try it chilled—bringing out an entirely new dimension to this Malbec.
