Malbec

Casa Montante invites you to indulge in the timeless charm of Argentine Malbec. This richly flavorful wine will captivate your senses with its dark fruit flavors and toasty oak character. Malbec, native to France, arrived in Argentina in the mid-19th century. It was brought over by French agronomist Miguel Pouget, who was tasked with diversifying the country's grape varieties. Soon after the first Malbec vines were planted in Mendoza, the grape found its new forever home, thriving in the crisp air and Andean sunshine. Malbec has since become a pillar of Argentina's winemaking culture and its flagship grape. Mendoza Malbec has garnered an international reputation and solidified Argentina as a powerhouse in the wine industry. Our Casa Montante allows you to enjoy a taste of this impressive history, one sip at a time. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wi ...

WINE REGION:

Outline of Mendoza

Mendoza

Mendoza is the heart of Argentinian wine production. It was here where a previously little-known French grape variety called Malbec became a global superstar. With its extreme altitudes and Andean climate, Mendoza nurtures its vineyards in dramatic sun-drenched plateaus set against snow-capped peaks. At these elevations, the intense UV light ripens grapes in a unique way, working with the cold mountain air to create gloriously supple and expressive wines with bold yet brightly aromatic fruit. Mendoza's high-quality varietals from Bonarda, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are also notable, as are its fine Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from sub-regions such as Maipú, Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley.

TASTING NOTES:

Blackberry

Plum

Chocolate

Our Malbec is plush and fruit-driven with balanced oak. Baking spice and chocolate aromas are an introduction to this approachable wine. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth acidity and tannins, ripe blackberry and plum, followed by a smoky bacon-fat-like finish.
