International Malbec Day Tasting Evening 20/04/2022

After the huge success of our last tasting evening, we would like to leap into the next with equal fervor. So we have decided to choose one of our absolute favourite grapes to be the subject of attention. At one point it almost disappeared, but due to the South Americans it has continued to be a staple bottle for any wine lover: Malbec.

One of the most popular grapes in the wine world has to be Malbec, capable of being enjoyed in the depths of winter and also at the summer barbeque, its versatility is unmatched. Most commonly known for the styles produced in Argentina, this grape has it's origins in the south west of France, where the flavours produced are quite different to those found in South America. It's this ability to produce distinctly different profiles which make this wonderful grape stand out, and we would love to show you how these compare.  

We aim to show off the most popular styles of Malbec, with both old and new world productions. If you've never tried French Malbec then you're in for a treat as the amazing vignerons of today really do draw out every drop of brilliance that this grape produces.
