Malbec Amalaya 2021
£14.00
Amalaya translates as ‘hope for a miracle’ in the indigenous language of the now extinct tribe, the Calchaquí. The winery is situated in Cafayate, Calchaquí Valley in Salta in the far north of Argentina.
This Malbec includes 15% Tannat and 5% Petit Verdot. Deep ruby red in colour with a purple hue, this wine displays intensely fruity red berry aromas of raspberries and cherries, floral notes and a touch of spice and chocolate. Well structured, fresh and fruity on the palate with soft, rounded tannins and a long velvety finish.
Stunning with barbecued lamb, pulled pork, or a spicy melanzane. I find Gorgonzola a great cheese pairing.
