El Enemigo Malbec 2022
A love letter to Argentine wine history — Mendoza Malbec with the soul of a 1930s pioneer and the precision of a modern master.
Grape Varietals & Region: 90% Malbec and 10% Cabernet Franc from the Adrianna Vineyard in Gualtallary, Uco Valley, Mendoza, Argentina — sourced from vineyards more than 1,300 metres above sea level in the northern Uco Valley. Gualtallary — referred to by the winery as "Mendoza's Montrachet" — has almost perfect conditions for high-altitude viticulture, with deep calcareous soils on volcanic substratum, producing wines of exceptional tension, freshness, and mineral complexity
Taste Profile: Opens with red fruit, fresh plum, soft herbs like chamomile and pennyroyal, and a violet note. The palate is dry, smooth, and fruit-forward, with fine tannins, a juicy flow, and a subtle chalky texture. The bouquet starts with a poised interplay between herbal and floral elements, with a core of black fruits, followed by a rich, fluid, and seamless palate, concluding with an intensely savoury, earth-tinged finish framed with grippy, refined tannins
Winemaking Process: Fermented entirely as whole clusters, then matured for 15 months in a mix of foudres (50%), barrels (25%), and tanks (25%). Respectful, low-intervention agriculture is practised throughout, with yields kept deliberately low — once at the winery, half the grapes are destemmed and the rest left in full bunches for fermentation. The result is a wine of uncommon freshness and precision for Mendoza Malbec — all concentration, no heaviness
