La Posta Paulucci Malbec 2021
Original price was: $32.67.$29.40Current price is: $29.40.
This wine was grown by Angel Paulucci on a beautiful vineyard in Ugarteche. It’s basically the perfect everyday Argentine Malbec – full bodied and opulent but delivered with restraint.
A delicious wine and great value given the price, the love and the care gone into making it.
La Posta roughly translates to ‘the ‘inn’ or the ‘tavern’ where the various growers and farmers meet to exchange ideas, and indulge their passion for great Malbec!

The La Posta wines are a project of Laura Catena to explore the different sub-regions of Mendoza. Laura grew up in the world of wine in Mendoza and her father Nicolas was a pioneer of the Argentina wine revolution. In the La Posta range Catena buys from a single grower in different sub-regions, the growers name is then emblazoned on the label. When the range was released it really was great timing as we were specifically looking for wines to explore sub-regional differences in Malbec around Mendoza: the work had already been done for us!
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.
