Antigal – Aduentus Malbec 2019

Antigal – Aduentus Malbec 2019

The Antigal Aduentus Malbec 2019 is a premium and powerful expression from Antigal Winery, crafted to represent the “arrival” (Aduentus is Latin for arrival) of a special Argentine red. Made from hand-harvested grapes from high-altitude vineyards in the Uco Valley, this wine is a testament to meticulous winemaking and the unique terroir of Mendoza.

Tasting Notes:

• Color: An intense, purplish-red color with deep black tones.
• Aroma: A complex and aromatic bouquet with notes of cherry, mint, dried fruits, and plum, beautifully framed by nuances of spice, chocolate, and vanilla from its oak aging.
• Palate: The palate is full-bodied and well-structured, with a creamy texture and great volume. It delivers a vibrant mix of ripe fruit flavors, complemented by round, silky tannins and a hint of spice. The fruit-to-wood balance is excellent, creating a harmonious and layered profile.

Finish: It concludes with a long, elegant, and persistent finish, leaving a memorable and refined impression.

The 2019 vintage, aged in French and American oak barrels, has been praised for its elegant balance and supple tannins. This Malbec is an excellent pairing for robust dishes such as grilled steak, venison, or rich, meaty stews.
