Product description

Gran Sombrero Malbec 2022 is a powerful yet refined Malbec from Gualtallary, one of the highest and most prestigious sub-regions of the Valle de Uco. The extreme altitude, cool nights and limestone-rich soils give this wine remarkable freshness, structure and mineral tension.

The 2022 vintage delivers intensity without heaviness — concentrated dark fruit, floral lift and finely shaped tannins. This is a modern, terroir-driven Malbec that balances richness with elegance.

Aroma

Expressive and layered, with aromas of blackberry, blueberry and dark plum, lifted by violet, graphite, cocoa and subtle herbal notes.

Palate

Full-bodied, structured and beautifully balanced. Flavours of ripe black fruit, cassis and black cherry are complemented by notes of dark chocolate, spice and a touch of minerality.
The tannins are firm yet polished, while fresh acidity keeps the wine vibrant.
The finish is long, focused and elegant, with a distinctive Gualtallary mineral edge.

A serious Malbec with depth, freshness and ageing potential.
