Nieto Senetiner Malbec - 750ml

Nieto Senetiner Malbec is a wine from Mendoza, Argentina, drawn from the rich fruit of two renowned growing regions: Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley. This wine spends six months maturing in French oak, a period that gently blends the bright fruit with subtle spice and structure, resulting in a balanced and expressive character. The careful integration of oak allows defined tannins to round softly, while preserving the vibrant core of the Malbec.

In the glass, it reveals notes of black fruit, violets, and a textured, grippy tannin that hints at its aging potential. The aroma is inviting and layered, with scents of ripe plum and blackberry evolving alongside floral hints and a touch of earthiness. As the wine opens, you may notice nuances of clove, pepper, and cinnamon, which add warmth and complexity to the overall profile. The palate is medium to full-bodied, offering a harmonious blend of fruit and spice that is both vivid and collected.

Flavor-wise, expect plum, cranberry, and blueberry flavors to mingle with tobacco and cocoa undertones, creating a savory, mid-palate richness. Tannins emerge gently—soft yet firm—providing texture and backbone without overpowering the fruit. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a coating of red fruit and spice on the tongue, with a hint of mineral certainty that nods to Mendoza’s terroir. The wine presents a deep, lively red color and a personality that is confident yet approachable, making it a versatile partner for grilled meats, hearty stews, or roasted vegetables, as well as a thoughtful choice for contemplative sipping.
