Crafted by the pioneering brothers Hector and Pablo Durigutti, the Reserva Malbec is a beautiful tribute to Mendoza's rich viticultural heritage. Sourced from select high-altitude vineyards in Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley, this wine captures the diverse expressions of Mendoza's alluvial soils. The Durigutti brothers employ a low-intervention philosophy, utilizing native yeasts and aging the wine in oak to respect the natural character of the fruit. This Reserva style balances the classic, lush black-fruit profile of Argentine Malbec with a refined structure, elegant mineral undertones, and a touch of savory spice, reflecting the historic soul of old-school Mendoza winemaking brought into the modern era.
