91 points “Ripe aromas of black plum and cassis are topped with an appealing oak tone. This is a fairly tight and fresh style of Malbec that shows black-fruit flavours on the palate aided by toasty oak. It finishes with firm tannins. Drink through 2026.” – Wine Enthusiast
A majestic magnum of Malbec from a big Harvey Nichols favourite. This impressive bottle comes from Chakana’s organic Ayni vineyard in Altamira. The cooler and more humid conditions of this area of Mendoza come together to create a rich and refined red with black plum blackberry crème de cassis Chinese five spice toast oak barrel and silky melted chocolate notes. The smallest splash of Cabernet Franc is blended into the Malbec adding intrigue and a certain je ne sais quoi which just elevates it above its single varietal competitors. Packaged in a striking gift box this is the perfect present for any Malbec lover.
Chakana meaning ‘Southern Cross’ in the Mapuche language of the Andes was founded over a decade ago by Argentinean banker Juan Pelizzote – who now owns 150 hectares of vines in the Mendoza region. The estate practices sustainable viticulture drip irrigates and enjoys sunny days and very cool nights throughout the year. Those conditions create wines with bold flavour but a refreshing elegance.
