Don Guerino Malbec Vintage 750ml
Malbec Vintage 2023
Don Guerino Vintage depicts the 1973 Fiat 600 used by Bruno Motter during his enology course in Mendoza, Argentina. While traveling through the main wine-growing regions in Mendoza, he fell in love with the Malbec and Torrontés grapes, icons of Argentine viticulture, and envisioned the possibility of planting them in the vineyards of the Don Guerino Winery in the Serra Gaúcha region.
Our Malbec Vintage is a light-bodied, medium-bodied wine with soft tannins. A classic red wine, aged for six months in French oak.
