2021 EL REDE MALBEC
Mendoza
Jimena Lopez makes the wine from 90-year-old hand-harvested vines in Mendoza. Jimena found her passion for wine early in life. She began taking viticulture and winemaking courses in high school and in the midst of her first harvest she realized that she had truly found her life’s passion in winemaking and has since gained invaluable experience working with wineries in California, Australia, and her homeland of Mendoza, Argentina. Grapes were gently de-stemmed and fermented in stainless steel for 7 days at 25-28ºC. Accented by notes of ripe red fruits, blueberries, dark chocolate and coffee beans.
