A distinctly tarry edge to the nose here with a core of rich black fruit that continues on the palate and arrives fresh at the finish.
The 2018 Don Miguel Gascón Malbec is a pure Malbec that represents the essence of the grape in Mendoza by mixing grapes from different locations in the province, where they used grapes from over 100 growers to arrive at this expressive and varietal red with aromas of violets and juicy berries. It's produced in a very approachable and easy-to-drink style that is clean and fresh, very good in 2018. It has 5% each Syrah and Petit Verdot.
Malbec is a red wine grape originating from France but finding success in Argentina. Known for its dark, inky color, Malbec wines from Argentina are full-bodied with rich fruit flavors like blackberry and plum. They often have moderate to high tannins and pair well with grilled meats. While Argentina is the primary producer, Malbec is also grown in other regions globally. The grape struggled in the cooler Bordeaux climate but thrives in Argentina's warmer conditions, especially in the high-altitude vineyards of the Andes. The wines are generally approachable in their youth but can age well, developing complexity and softer tannins over time.
