Marcelo Pelleriti Malbec Reserva
World-renowned winemaker Marcelo Pelleriti splits his time between Argentina and France, trying to achieve winemaking excellence in both countries. Marcelo started making wine as a young child with his grandfather on the family farm in the Uco Valley, Mendoza, which is now 110 years old. It was precisely on this finca that Marcelo made his first Marcelo Pelleriti wine in 1994, eager to share his vision and interpretation of his native terroir with the world.
Here in the foothills of the Andes at 1,000 m altitude, the alluvial soils and irrigation with pure melt water bestow freshness and finesse on his wines. The terroir of the region is evident in the quality and character of the wine, a unique character that cannot be found anywhere else in the world.
This intense Malbec displays a deep red color with purple glints. Its aroma is complex, with notes of red fruit such as plum, mingled with spices. A delicate wine on the palate, with round tannins. Elegant and persistent. Marcelo is proud enough to put his own name on it!
Hand-picked grapes, aged 12 months in French oak barrels, followed by 6 months in bottle. Serve between 14-16 °C (57-61 °F).
