San Juan, ArgentinaGraffigna has been around since 1870 and knows a thing or two about higher altitude malbec. In this case the fruit is harvested from Tulum (700m) and Pedernal Valley (1400m) in San Juan. Look for an enticing savoury, earthy, resiny nose that previews a rich black cherry/plum flavoured red with plenty of black fruit in the finish. Whole and balanced with just enough acidity to keep it all fresh, this one is a winner. Lamb or pork chops would be a fine match.Tasted: 28 September 2017Tasted by: Prices:

San Juan, ArgentinaGraffigna has produced wines from higher altitude Andean vineyards since 1870, and this malbec carries on that tradition with malbec sourced from Tulum (700m) and Pedernal Valley (1400m) in San Juan. Savoury and earthy, with pencil lead, graphite, branch texturing warm plum, black cherry and black raspberry. Lovely grippy tannins and a streak of acidity keep this fresh up to the black cherry and espresso finish. Well done.Tasted: 11 April 2017Tasted by: Prices:
