The juicy, primary and fruit-driven 2021 Estate Malbec was produced with grapes from different vineyards in the Valle de Uco with good ripeness to achieve 14.5% alcohol and a velvety texture. It's varietal and was bottled after 25% of the volume matured in used barrels for nine months while the rest was kept in concrete.

Doña Paula is an Argentine winery that has been producing high-quality Malbec wines since 1997. Located in the Uco Valley, the estate is dedicated to expressing the unique terroir of the region in its wines. The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully sorted to ensure only the best quality fruit is used. The wines are then aged in French oak barrels for 12 months, giving them a complex and intense flavour.

Doña Paula's Malbec wines are full-bodied and have a deep ruby colour. On the nose, they have aromas of ripe red fruits, spices, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, they are smooth and well-balanced, with flavours of blackberry, plum, and a hint of pepper. The finish is long and lingering, with a hint of oak.

Doña Paula's Malbec wines are perfect for pairing with grilled meats, stews, and hard cheeses. They are also great for enjoying on their own.
