Mystic Andes Malbec Rev.
$18.99
Mendoza (Argentina) is located at the foot of the Andes but on the
eastern side and 500 kilometers from the coast. This famous wine
region generally enjoys wide thermal amplitudes, poor alluvial soils,
low rainfall, and pure Andes irrigation water. All of which contribute
to fruit-forward wines that are well structured and easy to enjoy.
We work with a few very small grape growers in the mountains
that practice sustainable agriculture for generations, which
together with their small scale, dedication and handcraftsmanship
secures a harvest of the highest quality mountain sourced
Malbec you are about to experience.

PHILOSOPHY AND WINEMAKING
Our philosophy behind the winemaking is to keep the crafted
profile of the wine, in order to save the character of each
component, representing its origin and the Malbec expression in
the best possible way. The grapes are always hand- picked by
local farmers and their families that know the vineyards like the
back of their hands, which being a very hot climate, is very
relevant for choosing the right picking time, to preserve the
freshness of the berries and avoid them to be over ripped; the
winemaking process is then simple and with minimum
intervention. The wine is cold soaked and fermented in stainless
steel tanks with gentle pump overs to avoid over extraction and
after is aged in selected French oak for over 6 months. Low and
soft filtration is used trying to maintain tannins, aroma and
structure of the wine. The last stage is a 4-month bottle-aging
period for the wine to settle. All this process allows us to create a
fruity Malbec with great character, representative of the variety
and its origin. You can save this wine for the next 3-5 years
