From the crazily high altitude (6,000+ feet) Calchaqui Valley in Salta, this combines violet-scented fruit with succulent, plushy texture. A beautifully intense yet refined Malbec, Don David is well-balanced with soft tannins and notes of violets, plums, red fruits and a hint of chocolate. This wine pays homage to the winery's founder, Don David Michel, and after 12 months in oak, the wine gets to reflect the qualities of its namesake: distinction and elegance, and boasting a well-defined identity.
Winemaking
The grapes are carefully selected by hand and transferred to the winery. Pre-fermentation maceration takes place at 8°C in stainless steel tanks. Both native and selected yeasts are used in the fermentation process for added complexity. After fermentation, malolactic fermentation occurs in contact with oak. 70% of the wine is aged for 12 months in French and American oak barrels. The final blend is made with the extra 30%, which has been preserved in stainless steel tanks.
Our Expert Food Recommendation
Would go brilliantly with any robust red meat dish.
