Malbec Seleccion La Consulta - El Hijo Prodigo

The powerful Malbec Seleccion La Consulta from El Hijo Prodigo flows into the glass with dense purple-red color. Poured into a red wine glass, this red wine from Argentina reveals wonderfully complex aromas of raspberry, sour cherry, and acacia, rounded off by further fruity nuances contributed by barrel aging.

This Argentine wine impresses with its elegantly dry taste profile. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine, this Argentinean delights, despite all its dryness, with the finest balance. Flavor does not necessarily require residual sugar.

The finish of this red wine from the Mendoza / Uco Valley winegrowing region, more precisely from the Valle de Uco, ultimately convinces with a lovely aftertaste.
