Rich and vibrant with notes of blueberry and blackberry, well-balanced with lush fruit flavours of boysenberry and brambles with a long, spicy finish. This is a blueprint Argentinean Malbec; full bodied but balanced by the discreet grip of some well integrated tannins. It is absolutely perfect with a juicy burger.
Best known in Mendoza, Cahors
Argentina's signature red. Dark plum, blackberry and violets, with a soft, velvety texture that makes it very easy to like, with high-altitude Mendoza vineyards keeping it fresh. In its original home, Cahors, it makes firmer, darker and more rustic wines.
Argentina
The Andes as backdrop, altitude as climate control. Mendoza produces the vast majority of Argentina's wine — Malbec above all — from vineyards that sit at 600–1,500 metres above sea level. The altitude brings freshness to what might otherwise be overwhelmingly ripe fruit. Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley are the finest sub-regions.

More from Camarada →A collaboration with one of our suppliers, North South Wines and a well respected producer in Argentina... Grapes are hand harvested at the beginning of March and delivered to the winery in the same day. Stems are removed, then traditional fermentation at 22-24C for 6 - 10 days. Grapes are crushed using gentle pneumatic bag presses. Malolactic fermentation takes place to give organoleptic complexity to the wine. 50% of the wine is aged in new innerstaves for 5 months (70% French Oak and 30% American Oak) and micro-oxygenation.
