WINE DESCRIPTION
Ruta 22 Malbec is a premium wine produced by Bodega Patritti in Argentina's Rio Negro region. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level, where the climate is cool and dry, allowing for slow ripening of the grapes. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the best grapes, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in oak barrels for 12 months. The resulting wine is a deep ruby color with aromas of blackberry, plum, and vanilla. On the palate, it is full-bodied with soft tannins and a long finish. Ruta 22 Malbec is a perfect choice for those who appreciate a well-balanced and elegant wine.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Ruta 22 Malbec is a big, bold and intense wine with a deep ruby color.The nose is filled with aromas of ripe dark fruits, like blackberry and plum, as well as notes of tobacco and cedar. On the palate, the wine is lush and full-bodied, with a smooth and velvety texture and an impressive finish. The tannins are balanced and the acidity is just right. Enjoy this wine with a beef stew or a juicy steak to bring out the flavors.
