Description

Red WineBDA - Certified SustainabilityMendoza has become one of the most dynamic wine producing regions in the world with an enviable array of grape varieties, many of which are planted at high altitudes. The long summers mean the wines have wonderfully pure tasting fruit, and this Viñalba Malbec Reserve is an exceptional example of this. The wine is made to capture the beautiful purity of the grapes and get as much of that flavour as possible into the bottle. Rich and inviting this Malbec has smooth blackcurrant and plum flavours combines with toasty vanilla oak.
Viñalba is a family-owned winery, set-up and run by husband and wife Hervé and Diane Joyaux Fabre. “When I first came to Argentina in the early 1990s, I was amazed by the quality of the local terroir and its huge potential to produce beautifully balanced wines with a strong sense of place. We’re blessed with the perfect growing conditions for grapes in both Mendoza and Patagonia and an absolutely idyllic landscape. This is what we have tried to capture in every bottle of Viñalba, ever since our first vintage."Hervé’s philosophy is very much one of minimal intervention – he believes that wine should be an expression of the fruit and the vineyard. His use of oak follows this philosophy – his wines are always fruit-driven, and where he uses oak it is very much in a supporting role, so it never dominates.

Regional Information

Most Argentinian wine is produced in the province of Mendoza, but only a few vineyard sites offer such exceptional growing conditions as the Vinalba estate in the Gualtallary, Valle de Uco sub-region. With an enviable array of grape varieties, soils and altitudes (from 1200 to 1600m above sea level), as well as a very long, dry and mild autumn our vineyards are a winemaker's paradise.

Vinification Details

The grapes are harvested in the first half of April by hand into small trays of 20kg to prevent damage and then meticulously sorted in order to select the best grapes for this wine. Cold maceration takes for 5 days followed by fermentation in temperature controlled tanks at 26-28° with 4 pump overs per day and a period of 20 days of maceration.

History

In 1992, Herve J. Fabre became the first winemaker to produce a premium single varietal Malbec in Argentina. After identifying a number of different vineyard sites in the Valle de Uco which offered perfect conditions for Malbec and other varieties, Hervé & Diane launched Viñalba in 2007
