SPONSORED CONTENT  Trapiche Medalla Malbec is elaborated with grapes sourced from Maipú and Luján de Cuyo, in a region known locally as "Primera Zona" (or First Zone, where the first quality vineyards were planted in Mendoza). Gravel soils rich in rock content in combination with high altitude vineyards (above 850 m.a.s.l) allow this Malbec to express red fruits and wild herbs. Multi-layered, gravelly-inky and classy combining elegance with power. The fruitiness, juiciness and smooth but firm tannins of this Malbec makes it a great companion to dishes based on beef, pork as well as cold cuts, Mexican tacos, or Indian-styled butter chicken burritos, among others.
