Wine Expert Note:

This Malbec from Matías Riccitelli is a true gem. It showcases the classic characteristics of the Malbec grape with a unique twist. The nose is filled with intense aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, accompanied by hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and velvety, with a perfect balance between fruitiness and acidity. The Apple Doesn't Fall Far From The Tree Malbec has a rich and complex flavor profile. The ripe black fruit flavors are complemented by notes of dark chocolate, tobacco, and a touch of oak. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a smooth and elegant mouthfeel. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a pleasant aftertaste. This wine is a great example of the quality and craftsmanship that Matías Riccitelli is known for. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.
