Finca Flichman Caballero de la Cepa Malbec Reserve, Mendoza, Argentina, is a distinguished red Malbec, dry in style, crafted from grapes grown in Barrancas's rocky, well-drained vineyards. This wine undergoes 12 months of ageing in used French oak barrels, contributing to its elegant profile. It reveals perfumed aromas of violets, black plums, and cocoa, leading to a concentrated palate of blackberries, ripe plums, and tobacco leaves, balanced by sweet, ripe tannins and bright acidity. This vegan and vegetarian-friendly wine pairs exceptionally well with rich red meat dishes.
75.0CL , 13.5% ABV
Vinification
On arrival at the winery, the hand-picked grapes underwent a cold fermentation for two days at 10°C. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at 28°C, with regular open and closed pump overs performed. After 12 days, the wine underwent malolactic conversion. The wine was then aged in used French oak barrels for 12 months and spent a further three months ageing in bottle before release.
Flavour profile
This Malbec Reserve offers a complex bouquet of elegant violets, black plums, and cocoa, complemented by hints of cherry and eucalyptus. On the palate, it is concentrated with rich blackberries, ripe plums, and a touch of tobacco, all balanced by sweet, ripe tannins and bright acidity.
Serving recommendation
Serve at 16-18°C, ideally decanted for an hour to allow its complex aromas to unfold.
