Description
A profound expression of old-vine Malbec from the historic vineyards of Perdriel, Luján de Cuyo, Matervini Finca captures the soul of Mendoza’s traditional terroirs. The nose opens with black cherry, plum, and cassis, framed by delicate hints of graphite, dried herbs, and tobacco leaf. On the palate, it is dense yet finely textured, with layered flavors of dark fruit, cocoa, and earthy minerals.
Structured and elegant, the wine shows refined tannins, balanced acidity, and a persistent, savory finish that reflects its old vines and stony soils.
This is a Malbec of precision and depth, combining classic Mendoza richness with the tension and minerality that define Matervini’s signature style.
Style: Complex, mineral, and age-worthy — a timeless Malbec born from heritage vines.
