Price: 12,42€
DESCRIPTION
Casarena Estate Malbec 2024 comes from grapes in Agrelo and Perdriel, within Luján de Cuyo in Mendoza, hand-harvested on well-draining alluvial soils at an altitude of 950 meters. It benefits from 3 to 4 months of aging in second-use French oak barrels. Casarena, founded in 2008, crafts single-vineyard cuvées that capture the diversity and authenticity of Luján de Cuyo.
The aromatic profile is highly floral with crunchy notes of red fruits. On the palate, it proves to be medium-bodied and perfectly balanced, carried by a beautiful liveliness and round tannins. A saline freshness supports the whole. Ideal pairing with pasta Bolognese or a duck breast with sweet spices. Aging potential of 3 to 5 years.
REGION
Mendoza
Argentina
Mendoza is the largest wine region in Argentina. Set on a high altitude plateau at the edge of the Andes, the province accounts for around 70% of the country's annual wine production. The French grape Malbec has found its New World home in the vineyards of Mendoza, producing red wines of great concentration and intensity. While Malbec is without doubt the star of the region, you will also find many plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Syrah, Torrontés and Sauvignon Blanc.
Recommended for you:
This generous and approachable Malbec with well-ripe black fruits is an everyday wine you won't get tired of.
