Angélica Zapata Malbec: A Symphony of Elegance and Flavor
Experience the exceptional Angélica Zapata Malbec, a masterpiece crafted from meticulously selected Malbec grapes from five prestigious vineyards. This wine embodies concentration, complexity, and elegance, delivering an unforgettable sensory journey.
Each vineyard adds a unique layer to this harmonious blend. The Angélica Vineyard offers ripe aromas of plums and red fruit jam, delivering a smooth texture and remarkable volume on the palate. The Pyramid Vineyard enhances the wine with notes of black stone fruits, black pepper, and cloves, adding spiciness and depth.
From the Nicasia Block 2, you’ll find fresh and vibrant red berry flavors, while the Adrianna Block 3 captivates with intense floral notes of violets and lavender. Finally, the Block 9 richness imparts a deep violet hue and complex aromas of ripe black fruits, complemented by mineral undertones and a long, velvety finish.
This exceptional wine shines alongside iconic American dishes. Pair it with a grilled ribeye steak, simply seasoned with coarse salt and pepper, to highlight its robust structure. Enjoy it with barbecued baby back ribs glazed in a tangy barbecue sauce, enhancing the wine’s spiciness and fruity notes. For a refined pairing, try a creamy mushroom risotto, perfectly complementing its earthy and floral characteristics.
