2023 Luca Malbec Old Vine

Luca Malbec Old Vine 2023 is a vivid expression of Mendoza’s old-vine Malbec, offering generous fruit, depth, and the polished structure that has made Argentine Malbec a global favorite. Sourced from mature vines, it balances richness with freshness and carries the signature style that helped establish Mendoza as one of the world’s benchmark regions for the grape.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby-purple color. The nose is expressive and layered, with ripe black cherry, plum, violet, and subtle notes of spice, cocoa, and smoky oak. On the palate, it is plush and concentrated, with dark berry fruit, supple tannins, and a smooth, rounded texture supported by lively acidity. The old-vine fruit gives the wine extra intensity and complexity, while the finish is long and elegant with a touch of spice and mineral character. It should drink well young for its freshness and fruit, but can also develop further complexity over the next 4 to 6 years.

Production
Produced in Mendoza, where high-altitude vineyards, intense sunlight, and cool nights create ideal conditions for Malbec, this wine comes from old vines that naturally yield smaller crops with greater concentration. The fruit is typically harvested by hand to preserve quality, then vinified to emphasize pure varietal character, ripe fruit, and balanced structure.

Food & Serving
This Malbec pairs beautifully with grilled steaks, lamb, roasted vegetables, and dishes with rich sauces or smoky spices. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–45 minutes if you’d like to soften the tannins and open up the aromatics.
