It’s not just because I’ve visited this spectacular site that I love the Malbec it produces, although that helps. This really is one of the great wines of the world, with amazing perfume of wild herbs and white pepper, layers of red and dark berry fruit, stylish oak, filigree tannins and a finish that lingers on the palate.$601.00 -

Hailing from 20-year-old vines planted at 2,300 meters above sea level, the 2022 Auténtico Malbec matured for 10 months in predominately stainless steel and a portion of concrete eggs for 10 months. It opens with a distinctly savory, meaty nose of cracked pepper, cured meats, dried spices and purple flowers, introducing an intensely rich, svelte and lush palate. The finish is solid, sturdy and intensely mineral driven.$274.00 -

The 2022 Malbec Estate blends grapes from various Calchaquí Valley sites. Its 15 months of aging in 225- and 500-liter barrels with 25% new oak contributes complexity and character. Deep purple in color, it opens with blackberry, plum, spice and floral notes against an oaky backdrop. The palate mirrors these elements with juicy fruit, a plush texture, active tannins and a hint of chalk. The 2022 is long, flavorful and representative of northwest Argentina.$315.00 -
