Malbec Grape

Malbec

Malbec is a fascinating grape variety with a rich history and diverse expressions.

While Malbec is French by origin, it has become synonymous with Argentina, where it dominates vineyards. Over 75% of all Malbec grapes are grown in Argentina, particularly in Mendoza at significant altitudes.

Soft mouthfeel and flavors like red plum, blackberries, vanilla, sweet tobacco, and cocoa emerge during tasting. Oak aging influences these flavors, with more affordable Malbec spending less time in oak than top-shelf versions.

Malbec pairs well with a range of meats, strong cheeses, and earthy herbs and spices.

  • The Healy & Gray Estate Malbec Bonarda is a splendid red wine hailing from the esteemed Mendoza region in Argentina, Spain, where the high-altitude vineyards produce exceptional quality grapes. This wine greets you with a deep, intense red-violet hue, immediately captivating the eye.
