Malbec Altos Hormigas 2021
2021, Mendoza, Argentina
Profile & Story
Altos Las Hormigas was founded in 1995 by winemaker Alberto Antonini and Antonio Morescalchi, pioneers of terroir-driven Malbec in Mendoza. The Clasico Malbec is a wine of pleasure - fresh and fruity - that above all seeks to show its place of origin: 100% Malbec from Lujan de Cuyo and the Uco Valley.
Tasting Notes
Characteristic deep red colour with violet tints. An honest expression of the variety, full of eucalyptus, cassis, white pepper, plum, cardamom, orange peel and jarilla. Juicy and crisp on the palate, with a marked acidity and friendly, slightly sucrose tannins, finishing long and fruity.
Pairing Recommendation
Ideal with classic red meats, pasta or grilled vegetables.
