Value, consistency, succulent.
Argentine Malbec continues to lure consumers, due to price and full-impact flavour. Alamos is made by the Catena family, who have been Malbec pioneers in Mendoza for more almost 120 years.
2018 was considered an excellent vintage with wines emblematic of the region.
Mostly Malbec, it also contains 6% Cabernet and 5% Syrah in the blend and offers savoury spices, wild blackberries, grilled herbs, smoked meat, leather, tealeaf and vanilla aromas. The entry is supple and flavours echo the nose; wild purple and black berries, toasted spice and dark chocolate, espresso and black pepper trail on the finish.
Pair: Grilled meats and grilled vegetables, roasted mushrooms and hearty pastas
