This sustainably farmed, single-vineyard estate wine is composed of 100% hand-harvested Malbec from the Calchaqui Valley, Salta. This fruit-driven wine shows notes of blackberry and blueberry with light baking spices on the nose. A hint of cigar tobacco and milk chocolate lead to a fresh and lifted finish. This is like a dark berry fruit roll up in a glass!

El Porvenir de Cafayate is one of the benchmark wineries of Salta. The oldest vineyard was planted approximately 65 years ago and each parcel is primarily comprised of sandy soils with elevations ranging from 1650 to 1900 metres above sea level. They strive to maintain the legacy of their ancestors while incorporating current winemaking and viticulture. All grapes are hand harvested ,working with Tannat, Torrontes, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah along with some small plots of additional varietals. The winery is currently run by Lucia Romero-Marcuzzi, the granddaughter of Roberto, the founder of El Porvenir de Cafayate.
Malbec is a red wine grape variety that is originally from France. It is now primarily grown in Argentina, where it has become one of the country's most successful and recognizable exports. The grape produces a deep purple wine with dark fruit flavors, such as blackberry and plum, along with notes of spice and tobacco.
Malbec wines tend to be full-bodied with moderate acidity and medium to high tannins. They are often aged in oak barrels to give them a smooth, round texture and subtle vanilla or toast flavors. Malbec pairs well with red meats, particularly beef, and hearty, flavorful cheeses.
