Bodega Santa Julia is a family-owned Mendoza estate that has helped revolutionize Argentine winemaking through sustainable practices. The 2022 Reserva Malbec is sourced exclusively from Uco Valley fruit, aged for 10 months in French oak barrels, and crafted to balance structure with varietal expression.

 

TASTING NOTES: Dark violet with bluish hues. The nose opens with ripe blackberries, plums, cherries, vanilla, and chocolate. The palate is medium-bodied, with juicy red and dark fruit complemented by dried herbs and a touch of clove. Tannins are soft yet present, acidity well-balanced, leading to a polished, spicy finish.

 

FOOD PAIRINGS: Pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted red meats (beef, lamb), venison, barbecue, and hard cheeses—its rich fruit and supple structure suit hearty dishes.
