Description
At last a 100% ‘No Sulphur Added’ Malbec from the renowned Domaine Bousquet, offering the purest expression of the local terroir. Made from Malbec grapes grown at 1,200 metres in the foothills of the Andes, which benefit from plenty of sunlight and temperature swings, which is said to add extra flavour and freshness to the grapes. This delicious no sulphur added Malbec is deep violet in colour with intense berried fruit and floral notes with a touch of tasty spice and violets on the palate.
- Recommended in Harper’s Magazine, Harper’s Choice, saying “…no added sulphites and no oak, just flavourful, fresh-tasting wine made from high-altitude grapes grown in Gualtallary.” (2022 vintage)
- 90 Points, Best of Argentina, Tim Atkin MW (2020 vintage)

Really nice Malbec. Quite full and heady and despite a smallish headached in the morning I can forgive it this as it is 14.5%. Much better on second day. Would recommend.
