Malbec Wine

Alamos Malbec Mendoza 2024 — Mendoza, Argentina

Alamos is the approachable, everyday label from Catena Zapata — Argentina’s most celebrated wine family and the producer widely credited with putting Mendoza Malbec on the world map. While Catena’s flagship wines command serious prices, Alamos was created to deliver the same Andean terroir and winemaking philosophy at an accessible price point. Sourced from high-altitude Mendoza vineyards where the combination of intense sunlight, cool nights, and mineral-rich soils produces Malbec of exceptional depth and character.

The 2024 shows a deep ruby color with violet hues. The nose offers layers of dark cherry, blackberry, violet, and vanilla spice. On the palate, the wine is velvety and expansive, with balanced tannins and a long, smooth, lingering finish — complex and approachable in equal measure.

Catena Zapata’s everyday Malbec — Andean terroir, honest price, zero compromise.

Our project Avenida 67 is back after a few years of hiatus.

This time, we’ve teamed up with one of the most iconic Argentine winegrowing families — the Benegas-Lynch family. Fifth-generation producers in Mendoza, Argentina, their legacy is deeply rooted in the cradle of Argentine winemaking.

Avenida 67 was the first label I ever created for 67 Wine, so it carries tremendous sentimental value. Working with Tiburcio Benegas, who currently leads operations at Bodegas Benegas, has been an absolute pleasure. Tiburcio is a man of many talents, and preserving his family’s legacy is among his greatest passions.

On the palate, it is juicy and precise — vibrant acidity and a savory, sturdy core frame the dark fruit, with a high-toned, lingering finish of earthy depth and freshness.

Zuccardi Q · Valle de Uco, Mendoza · 2024

Zuccardi Q Malbec 2024 captures the Uco Valley through black fruit, wild herbs and a dry, chalky texture. Sourced from Gualtallary, Los Chacayes and Altamira, it combines expressive fruit with freshness, precision and a mineral-driven finish.

Producer & Terroir

Zuccardi Valle de Uco brings together three generations of a family dedicated to wines that express their place of origin. In 1963, engineer Alberto “Tito” Zuccardi planted the family’s first vineyard in Mendoza to demonstrate a new irrigation system he had invented to meet the challenges of the desert. The project sparked a lasting passion for viticulture. His son José Alberto took the helm in 1985, carrying forward that innovative spirit and becoming an enthusiastic ambassador for Argentine wine.

In 1999, Sebastián Zuccardi, José Alberto’s son and Tito’s grandson, began a sparkling-wine project with friends in the Uco Valley. He later joined the family winery and led its development in the high mountain region. The family planted its first vineyards in Canal Uco, Paraje Altamira, in 2007, followed by Piedra Infinita and Los Membrillos in Paraje Altamira, Las Cuchillas in San Pablo, and Las Cerrilladas and Agua de La Jarilla in Gualtallary. Sebastián and his team continue to explore the personality of Argentine wines.

Sebastián Zuccardi
“I enjoy opening a bottle of wine and being able to travel to its place of origin. That’s why our wines tell the story of the place, our vision, and our interpretation of the terroir and the year of the harvest.”

In 2022, Zuccardi became the only winery in Argentina with three wines awarded 100 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, bringing further recognition to Paraje Altamira. That year, Wine Enthusiast named Zuccardi Valle de Uco “New World Winery of the Year.” The World’s Best Vineyards named it Best Vineyard in the World in 2019, 2020 and 2021, welcoming it into its Hall of Fame in 2022. These distinctions recognize the producer, not scores for this bottle.

Tasting Notes

Blackberry, plum and wild herbs meet savory and floral notes. The palate is dry and chalky, balancing refined richness with freshness and textural depth. A mineral-driven finish gives the fruit a focused, expressive close.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2024

James Suckling, 93 Points · 2024
This shows blackberries, tar and black ink on the nose. The palate is full-bodied with focused tannins, incisive acidity and a thin thread of fruit woven tightly with the structure, texture and freshness. This comes from grapes grown in Los Chacayes at 1,000 meters. Drink now or hold.

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, 91 Points · 2024
As ever, the 2024 Q Malbec offers as solid an overview as one could want of both the modern Uco Valley and the unwavering clarity that defines the Zuccardi portfolio. Equal parts herbal, savory and floral on the nose, the mouthfeel delivers svelte precision and textural depth that transcend its price point, with a well-defined, mineral-driven finish.

Vinous, 91 Points · 2024
The 2024 Malbec Q, sourced from Gualtallary, Los Chacayes and Altamira, presents a modern profile from the Uco Valley. It delivers black fruit, blackberry and core plum aromas, along with wild herbs and aromatic clarity. This is dry and chalky on the palate, with refined richness. It flows with athletic precision and expressive character. The 2024 is juicy and full of flavor.

Wine Enthusiast, 91 Points · 2024
A fruit-driven nose with hints of peppery spices introduces this well-crafted Malbec. The bright palate brings together expressive flavors of ripe strawberries and dark cherries that extend into the finish.

Pairing Suggestions

Try with grilled steak, roasted mushrooms or hearty lentil dishes to complement the wine’s dark fruit and savory character.

Bodegas CARO · Amancaya Malbec-Cabernet · Mendoza · 2021 · 750ml

The Producer

The partnership between Domaine Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) and the Catena family took root in 1999. The Catenas brought their knowledge of Mendoza's high-altitude terroirs and their passion for fine Malbec; the Rothschilds brought centuries of skill in growing, vinifying and aging great Cabernet Sauvignon, plus their mastery of blending. Together they created CARO, a union of their famous surnames, Catena and Rothschild, celebrating the fusion of opposites and the greatness that synergy can yield.

Bodegas CARO sources grapes from exceptional sites in the Andean foothills: Luján de Cuyo, part of the "First Zone" where Argentina's first Malbecs were planted, and the Uco Valley. The winery itself, built in 1884, is a designated heritage building in the heart of Mendoza. Today the estate is led by Laura Catena and Saskia de Rothschild, two of the most dynamic women in wine, with winemaker Philippe Rolet, crafting expressions of Mendoza's rugged terroir with balance, refinement and freshness.

The Wine

Amancaya is CARO's Malbec-led blend with Cabernet Sauvignon, pairing Argentina's plush, dark-fruited signature grape with the structure and polish of Bordeaux's classic variety.

Bodegas Caro · Aruma Malbec · Mendoza · 2023 · 750ml

The Producer

Bodegas Caro is a partnership between two of the wine world's great families: Domaine Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) from France and the Catena family from Argentina. The name Aruma means "night" in the native Quechua language, a nod to the cool mountain nights of the Andes that keep the fruit fresh and bright.

The Wine

The robe is deep red with hints of violet, and the nose opens with plum and red fruit. The palate is fresh and elegant, with remarkable balance between tannins, acidity and alcohol, leading to a long, delicate finish. Overall, a very convivial, attractive wine.

Expert Reviews (2023 Vintage)

"The 2023 Malbec Aruma is sourced from El Peral and Los Chacayes in the Uco Valley. This warm 2023 vintage was balanced by an early harvest, resulting in a subtly lighter palate. After spending a winter on the fine lees, this vibrant Malbec showcases intense purple hues, with pristine notes of fresh herbs, violet, cherry and plum. Juicy and expressive, it features fine tannins and lively fruit flavors, making it an energetic and primary wine."
Vinous, 91 points

"An honest and fruit-driven malbec that shows plump fruit and violet character. Fine-grained tannins on the fruity palate, with a fleshy core of ripe, concentrated purple fruit in the middle. Still fresh and pristine in finish full of fruit."
James Suckling, 91 points

"The 2023 Aruma is a beautiful overview of Argentine Malbec, leading with a dark-fruited nose of mixed berries, turned earth and floral accents that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is elegantly plush and vibrant, transitioning to a rich yet lifted finish with admirable delicacy and nuance."
The Wine Advocate, 90 points

"A nose of wild berries introduces a smooth palate, featuring enough dark fruit and freshness to make it enjoyable. A dash of herbs marks the close."

The Wine Advocate 97 Points | The 2020 Aluvional Gualtallary is more floral and expressive, a little more exuberant than the 2019 I tasted next to it. In 2020, they harvested some 10 days earlier than in 2019 (they started in February!), and the wines finished with similar alcohol levels (14%) and even with a slightly lower pH and higher acidity in 2020, so with very good freshness. They fermented with some 30% to 50% of stems in the vinification (they use grapes from three different vineyards that are vinified separately, all in the Monasterio part of Gualtallary) and matured the wine in concrete. This is very young, and the palate reveals the inner notes of thyme and rockrose, the violets and the small berries. The texture is akin to liquid chalk, a mineral and austere wine, with very fine tannins and a long, dry finish.

Fermentation in concrete is followed by 24 months in large wooden foudres, which soften the structure without imposing a pronounced oak flavor. The result brings together the character of two Uco Valley origins rather than a single Paraje Altamira source.

Expert Reviews · Vintage 2021

James Suckling · 96 Points A full-bodied and expressive malbec with 5% cabernet sauvignon. Minerals, black cherries and cool blue fruit. A touch of cocoa powder, but there is nothing plush. Concentrated but austere, with tons of juicy fruit and dusty tannins treading into a long, bright finish. Fermented in concrete and aged 24 months in foudres. Drink or hold.

Wine Advocate · 94 Points Sourced from Altamira and Gualtallary, the 2021 José Zuccardi is 95% Malbec and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon that was fermented in concrete before maturing two years in foudre. It is an homage to Sebastián's father, aiming to evoke the historic wines of Argentina—as Sebastián says, "not the 1990s or 2000s, but the 1940s or 1950s." It leads with an inviting, focused nose of black fruits and balsamic accents, introducing a creamy, svelte and taut palate. It concludes with a seamless, refined and elegantly decadent finish. It is a perfect marriage of classically informed richness and contemporary precision.

Tim Atkin · 94 Points Named after Sebastián Zuccardi’s father, José, this is an assemblage of Malbec and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon from Gualtallary and Paraje Altamira. Aged in large wooden foudres that have a negligible impact in terms of flavour, but do soften the wine’s structure, it’s dark, brooding and intensely coloured, with savoury tannins, damson and bramble flavours, bright acidity and a mountain herb top note.

Food Pairing Suggestions

Pair with traditional Argentine asado, porterhouse steak, grilled veal chops or rich mushroom-based dishes. Savory, deeply flavored food complements the wine's concentrated fruit, tannins and bright acidity.

MONTES ALPHA MALBEC VALLE DE COLCHAGUA 2023 | 750ML

🇨🇱 Chile — Malbec | Valle de Colchagua

Deep ruby red with an intense violet hue. The nose focuses around pronounced aromas of ripe sour cherries, violets, and wildflowers, while a touch of crème de cassis, jam, and anise round out the aromatic profile. The generous palate has tremendous volume, and perfectly round tannins lend structure to a long, lingering finish.

“We always seek to go further — this time, we wanted to go higher, to go beyond wisdom. It is challenging, and you need two wings to fly.”

A creative flight of two generations: our founder Aurelio Montes and his son of the same name, Aurelio Montes, embark on this creative journey that brings a unique Carménère to life.

Winemaker Description 

In terms of quality and price, this is arguably the best 'Bordeaux blend' in our portfolio, made by a winemaker who is passionate about the wines of his French cousins but still proudly Argentine. 50% Malbec, 20% Cab Franc, 20% Cab Sauv, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot.

A nose of black fruits, spices, white pepper, clove, cardamon, eucalyptus, thyme and rosemary - complex in other words, with a fantastic finish.

Federico Benegas Lynch was raised at ‘El Trapiche’, a winery established in 1883 by his great, great grandfather, Don Tiburcio Benegas, one of the original pioneers of Argentine wine. The winery was finally sold in the 1970s and in 1998, following a successful business career in Buenos Aires, Federico returned to Mendoza to re-kindle his lifelong passion and professional destiny, wine. He bought Finca La Libertad, an historic 40-hectare vineyard with ‘soils’ of stone on the old Upper Mendoza riverbank in Cruz de Piedra, and the old winery that belonged to his mother’s family which he quickly set about refurbishing. His idea was based on the traditional French Châteaux system, where proprietorship of vineyard and winery are inextricably linked.

Finca El Origen · Malbec Reserva · Uco Valley, Mendoza · 2025

Finca El Origen Malbec Reserva 2025 offers violet and red-fruit aromas layered with vanilla and cigar notes. Blackberry and spice follow on the palate, where medium structure, silky tannins and natural acidity lead to a prolonged finish.

Producer & Terroir

Finca El Origen is situated in Los Chacayes, a winegrowing micro-region of Mendoza's Uco Valley. At approximately 1,200 meters above sea level, its rocky, sandy terrain provides the setting for balanced wines with concentrated color and aromas. The estate's philosophy brings together knowledge, passion and a close attention to place to create authentic mountain wines.

A Nautilus fossil discovered while preparing the land for vines connects the vineyard's story to its ancient marine origins and the formation of the Andes. This discovery is part of the inspiration behind the Finca El Origen identity.

Expert Review - Vintage 2025

James Suckling · 90 Points · Vintage 2025. Fresh aromas of vanilla beans, coffee, ripe blackberries and dark cherries. Flavorful and medium- to full-bodied with chewy tannins and a direct, flavorful finish. Try from 2027.

Winemaker Description

The intense violet color makes it a worthy representative of the wines from Los Chacayes. A wine of distinct aromatic complexity, with outstanding notes of red fruits, floral aromas of violets, vanilla and cigar. The mouth confirms the presence of black fruits like blackberries and spices. The medium structure and silky tannins are perfectly balanced with the delicious natural acidity, leading to a prolonged finish.

Pairing & Serving

Try grilled steak, roasted vegetables, mushroom empanadas or a hearty lentil stew. Serve slightly below room temperature and allow time in the glass for the fruit and spice to unfold.

Deep ruby-purple in the glass with an inky core. The nose opens with ripe plum, black cherry, and a hint of cedar, with subtle suggestions of leather and a whisper of smoke.
