Old-world and New World Malbec go head-to-head.
Malbec vs. Malbec who will win? Two wines enter, one will leave…. Well, actually in this case, likely no wine will be left, because both are delicious. Estate Malbec from El Esteco in Argentina or Cahors from Malbec's spiritual home? If I had to choose, I would choose BOTH!
"A concentrated Malbec with notes of blueberries, dried fruits, raisins, coffee and a touch of herbaceousness. The vibrant palate has firm, juicy tannins, great concentration of flavour and length. There are few places on earth where magic really happens. The Calchaqui Valley, home of El Esteco winery, is certainly one of them. This Valley, located over 1800 metres (6000 feet) hidden in the north of Argentina, displays some unique characteristics. Poor alluvial soils; high sun exposure; low humidity; and broad thermal amplitude make the Calchaqui Valley an exceptional wine region."
"Blackcurrant, raspberry and violet in a silky-smooth glove. Delicious classic Cahors Malbec."
