Finca Suarez Malbec, Paraje Altamira
£24.95
The Suarez family connection with Paraje Altamira goes way back. Juanfa Suarez’ great grandfather, Leopoldo, bought the finca in 1920 and established an experimental winery for varietal micro-vinifications and he saw the huge potential of the Uco Valley and its calcareous soils way back then.
Juanfa’s first vintage was 2013 and in a short space of time his wines have emerged as being really rather special.
This is a different kind of Malbec; there is a beautiful sense of purity and balance to the wine, no overripe fruit, burning alcohol or excessive oak here. A wine that shows it’s class by not trying too hard.
And of course, this makes it all the more food-friendly; perfect with roast dinners as well as rich game dishes.
