'Hey Malbec!' Matias Riccitelli 2022/23, Mendoza

Talented young winemaker Matias Riccitelli cleverly blends grapes from the Uco Valley and Luján de Cuyo, two of the highest quality enclaves in Mendoza, to make this wine. He leaves it unoaked, instead fermenting it in little concrete vats which are traditional in Argentina. It means the wine is especially fresh and juicy. Blackberry. Violet. Black pepper.

The flavours are intensely vibrant – they really sing out of the glass. There’s nothing better with a blue-cheese burger.
