92 points “The 2019 Malbec feels fresher and more elegant with expressive aromas of berries and aromatic herbs a spicy twist but nicely integrated and in the background.” – Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
One of Argentina’s benchmark Malbecs this comes from 90-year-old vines in Luján de Cuyo. Matured in French oak for 12 months the Mendel Malbec 2018 has a lovely smoked nut and toasted sesame character which gives it a completely unique personality. Blackberry black cherry raspberry and plum jam fruit flavours marry together harmoniously with notes of caramel liquorice coffee peppery spice and dark chocolate. Pair this stunner with nutty dishes or something grilled or roasted.
Having worked for many years at the iconic Château Cheval Blanc in Saint-Émilion Roberto de la Mota is one of Argentina’s most respected and experienced winemakers. In collaboration with the Sielecki family he is the driving force behind Mendel’s world-class wines. This boutique winery is named after the father of the proprietor Annabelle Sielecki and focuses on two terroirs: vineyards planted in Luján de Cuyo in 1928 and a new project of old vines in Altamira.
