NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This The Show Malbec is a full-bodied, yet smooth and supple red wine.On the nose, it offers aromas of dark fruits such as blackberry and currant, along with notes of baking spice, tobacco, leather, and earth. On the palate, it is concentrated and intense, with flavors of dark fruits, smoke, graphite, and black pepper. The tannins are firm yet velvety, and the finish is long and lingering. This is an excellent Malbec for its price point, and should please most red wine drinkers.

ORIGINS
Winery: The Show
Region: Mendoza
Mendoza is the largest wine-producing region in Argentina, located in the foothills of the Andes Mountains. It is known for its high-altitude vineyards, producing some of the country's most renowned wines. With a long history of winemaking, Mendoza is now one of the most important wine regions in South America. The territory of Mendoza can be divided into five large sub-regions, which give the varieties their particular characteristics: Valle de Uco GI, integrated by the departments of Tunuyán, Tupungato and San Carlos; Primera Zona, which includes the departments of Luján de Cuyo and Maipú; the Northern oasis (Lavalle and Las Heras), the East (San Martín, Rivadavia, Junín, Santa Rosa and La Paz) and the South (San Rafael, Malargüe and General Alvear), covering practically the entire provincial geography.
Mendoza has been producing wine since the 16th century, when Spanish settlers first brought vines to the region. Since then, the region has become a major producer of both red and white wines, with a focus on Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Torrontés. In recent years, Mendoza has become a leader in sustainable winemaking, with many producers focusing on organic and biodynamic practices.CUSTOMER RATING
