Tasting Notes 

The 2023 Reserva Malbec from Terrazas de los Andes displays a deep garnet-red color with bright hues and an aromatic profile that bursts with ripe red fruits such as cherry and rose hip, layered with notes of lavender, violet, and subtle mountain spices. On the palate, it offers a balance of freshness and tension, with flavors of blackberry, raspberry, and plum interwoven with balsamic undertones, hints of toasted oak, and a touch of tobacco from its 14 months in French oak barrels. The wine’s silky tannins and lively acidity make it versatile at the table, pairing seamlessly with grilled steaks, roasted lamb, braised short ribs, herb-marinated chicken, and even rich vegetarian dishes like mushroom risotto or lentil stew. Its structure and elegance reflect the high-altitude terroirs of Mendoza, where more than 100 plots contribute to its complexity, and it shows excellent potential for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring.
