Trumpeter Malbec 2023
KShs1,940 incl. of VAT
The Trumpeter Malbec 2023 pours a deep purple with ruby highlights. On the nose, ripe aromas of blackberries, plums, and blueberries stand out. Notes of violet, soft spices, and a touch of cocoa add intrigue.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a smooth, velvety texture. Juicy dark fruits blend seamlessly with hints of vanilla, mocha, and subtle oak. Fine tannins and balanced acidity lead to a long, satisfying finish.
Pair this Malbec with grilled meats, or aged cheeses like gouda or cheddar.
Description
Food pairing
Match with grilled meats and hard cheeses such as parmesan and sardo. This wine will easily stand up to strongly flavoured foods, for example chorizo and rich pasta sauces.
About this bottle
Trumpeter Malbec from Rutini Wines is a Wine Box best seller. The grapes come from selected vineyards in the Uco Valley, in the premier wine growing region of Mendoza in Argentina. Here, the vines are stressed by the high altitude and free draining soils with the result that yields are lower. However, the fruit is more intensely flavoured.
The winemaker matures the wine in French and American oak for 7 months before bottling; this imparts complexity and structure while softening the tannins.
