LUIGI BOSCA MALBEC 75CL 14%

Sumptuous red wine which is a deep ruby-red colour, with aromas of ripe red fruit, spices and black pepper. The palate intensity is complemented by the softness and sweetness of tannins. The grapes for this wine are grown in vineyards in Mendoza, namely in luj?n de cuyo and the uco valley, where the vines average 35 years of age and lie at altitudes of 900 to 1,100 metres.

Generous, smooth and expressive on the palate, this is a clean and refreshing malbec with soft, well-integrated tannins and plenty of body. Full-bodied and well structured and great with beef or venison.

Recommended cheeses to enjoy with Luigi Bosca Malbec include .... Aged cheddar: hard, aged cheddars from Cheddar Gorge, with nutty and robust flavors pair excellently with the wine's intensity.

Gouda: Our Old Amsterdam is a classic and reliable choice, as the semi-firm texture and flavor work well with malbec's characteristics.

Asiago: this semi-hard italian cheese makes an excellent match, offering a flavor profile that can stand up to the wine.

Provolone: a good semi-firm cow's milk cheese option that provides an interesting and complementary flavor.

Blue cheese: the "Jammy" and fruit-forward qualities of the malbec help bring out the complexity in a soft or semi-firm blue cheese (such as Dolcelatte aand our Gorgonzola), preventing either the wine or cheese from dominating the palate.
