โจ Technical Specifications
Trapiche's Tribu Malbec is crafted as an approachable, fruit-forward introduction to Argentina's signature grape. The name 'Tribu' (meaning 'tribe') pays homage to the shared, communal spirit of enjoying wine with friends and family. Sourced from selected vineyards across the sunny, high-altitude terroirs of Mendoza, this wine is designed to showcase the pure, unadorned character of Malbec. To preserve its vibrant primary fruit flavors of plum and cherry, the winemaking team utilizes temperature-controlled stainless steel fermentation with minimal oak contact. The result is a fresh, easy-drinking red that captures the youthful energy of Mendoza's modern viticulture.
