Finca Flichman Misterio Malbec
A smooth red wine bursting with black cherry and plum, complemented by a hint of tobacco
Finca Flichman Misterio, Mendoza, Argentina. This still red wine, crafted from Malbec grapes, presents a dry and approachable profile. It offers a complex bouquet of violets, black cherries, and ripe black plums, with subtle hints of tobacco. On the palate, plush blackberry flavours are beautifully complemented by sweet tannins, leading to an elegant and smooth finish. A portion of the wine was aged in French oak barrels for three months, adding a layer of complexity. This versatile red is vegan and vegetarian-friendly, pairing wonderfully with grilled meats, hearty pasta dishes, or mature cheeses.

Vinification
The grapes were fermented for 10 days at 24°C in double jacketed stainless steel tanks. Fermentation was arrested a little early by cooling the musts to maintain a slightly higher level of residual sugar, so desired in order to balance the high level of acidity in the wine. The wine then underwent malolactic fermentation and 20% was aged in French oak barrels for three months. Bottle ageing took place for two months prior to release.
