✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Part of Trapiche's esteemed Terroir Series, this single-vineyard Malbec pays homage to Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, the visionary Argentine president who in the mid-19th century commissioned French agronomist Michel Aimé Pouget to bring European vines—including Malbec—to Argentina. Sourced from the historic Finca Domingo F. Sarmiento in the high-altitude sub-appellation of La Consulta within the Uco Valley, this wine showcases the dramatic diurnal temperature shifts and sandy-loam soils rich in calcium carbonate. The grapes are hand-harvested, meticulously sorted, and fermented in small concrete vats before undergoing aging for approximately 18 months in new French oak barrels. This process yields a deeply concentrated, complex Malbec characterized by intense dark fruit, floral violet notes, mineral undertones, and structured, velvety tannins.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Bodega Trapiche blev grundlagt i 1883 af Tiburcio Benegas og hører til blandt Argentinas ældste, mest ansete og internationalt anerkendte vinproducenter med base i Maipú, Mendoza. Vingården holder til i et historisk vineri i florentinsk stil for foden af Andesbjergene, hvor over et århundredes vindyrkningstradition forenes med nyskabende innovation og biodynamiske metoder. Trapiche er berømt som en sand pioner for argentinsk Malbec og samarbejder med dedikerede vinbønder i de bedste mikroklimaer for at skabe terroirdrevne Single Vineyard-aftapninger, alsidige Oak Cask-varianter samt elegante hvidvine og mousserende vine, der alle hylder Mendozas mangeartede terroirs.
