Staphyle Malbec

The 2021 Staphyle Malbec hails from Mendoza, Argentina. The Porretta family, third - generation winemakers, have deep roots in this region. With high - altitude clay - loam soil and a cool climate, they've thrived since founding Bodega Staphyle in 2002, rebuilding an old 1930s winery. This premium Malbec is young and bright, fermented with native yeasts and macerated for 25 days. It offers fruity flavors of plums, cherries, and blackberries, and has a well - balanced high acidity. Ideal for pairing with savory dishes like duck confit, lamb, and dark chocolate.

To enjoy this Staphyle Malbec, first, let it breathe for about 30 minutes after opening. Pour it into a wide - bowl wine glass to enhance the aroma. Serve it at a temperature around 18 - 20°C for the best flavor. When pairing, go for savory dishes like duck confit, lamb, or dark chocolate as mentioned. Keep the unopened bottle in a cool, dark place with a consistent temperature. Once opened, re - cork it tightly and store it in the refrigerator. Try to finish it within 2 - 3 days to enjoy its freshness.
