Product Notes

Salentein Barrel Selection Malbec delivers an opulent experience for sophisticated palates. Made from grapes cultivated in Argentina's Uco Valley, this wine offers an intoxicating blend of rich flavours and aromas. Its expressive bouquet stems from a year-long maturation in French oak barrels, highlighting sumptuous notes of ripe red fruits, complemented by hints of vanilla and sweet spices. The wine's intense ruby-red hue hints at its full-bodied flavour profile; robust tannins and an enduring finish lend it a remarkable complexity. Salentein Barrel Selection Malbec is truly an ode to the mastery of old-world winemaking, perfect for every special occasion.

Tasting Notes

Deep red-purple coloured wine, very intense nose with notes of ripe blackberry, blueberry and redcurrant, with subtle hints of violet. The silky palate has a crisp, balancing acidity which shows the fruit and floral notes backed by vanilla on the lingering finish.
