Don Guerino 'Vintage' Malbec 2018, Brazil

Our Brazilian best-seller is a softer Malbec with aromas of violets, mulberries and juicy plums.

Don Guerino Malbec is a full-bodied dry red wine from Alto Feliz, Brazil. It's 100% Malbec with 13.0% abv. Suitable for Vegetarians.

Meet winemaker Bruno Motter's exceptional Malbec. Motter had cut his teeth making Malbec in Mendoza in Argentina before turning his craft to his family winery in Brazil. The grapes are harvested from 15 year old vines and pressed into a brightly hued, deep purple juice. After fermentation, the wine is matured in both French and American oak for six months before enjoying a further six months in bottle pre-release. The result is a restrained Malbec body but with a real intensity of fruit. Mulberries, black plums, blackcurrants and sweetish caramel combine on the palate with light aromas of violets and a bite of refreshing acidity.

You'll like this if you like... rich, full-bodied red wines from the old world.
