Montesco Parral 2019: A Timeless Red Blend from Argentina’s Uco Valley

Origin & Craftsmanship:
Hailing from the iconic Uco Valley in Mendoza, Argentina, the Montesco Parral 2019 is a masterful blend of 40% Malbec, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 25% Bonarda, sourced from old Pergola vines planted in the early 1970s in Tupungato. This red wine embodies the rustic charm and tradition of Argentina’s mountainous viticulture, offering a unique expression of terroir and heritage.

Winemaking Excellence:
Crafted through co-fermentation of Malbec, Bonarda, and Cabernet Sauvignon using native yeasts, the Parral ages gracefully for two winters in old oak barrels, enhancing its complexity without overpowering its natural character. The use of cement eggs during fermentation adds a distinct texture, resulting in a wine that is both bold and balanced.

Flavor Profile & Pairing:
With an alcohol content of 14%, this red blend delivers a harmonious balance of dark fruit notes, subtle spice, and earthy undertones. Its full-bodied structure makes it an ideal companion for hearty dishes like grilled meats, rich stews, and aged cheeses. Perfect for those seeking a wine with depth, character, and a touch of rustic elegance.
