Palo Santo Malbec 2024 75cl

Tasting Note

Over a nose of regional graphite and damson fruit the palate is structured with notes of black tea, black cherry, damson and gently creamy vanilla notes. Uco Valleys inherent altitude gives this wine its serious structure and finesse. The wine finishes with great purity, elegance and deliciously gentle grip.

Producer

Not far from the mountain town of Tupungato, the Urquia family have invested in 300 hectares of desert soils shadowed by the immensity of the Argentine Andes. The winery’s name, Urqo, elegantly merges the family’s surname and the Uco Valley. Urqo’s vineyards spread across Los Chacayes and Tupungato districts and benefit from this raw exposure. The high UV and the mean, sandy soils of the desert environment are ideal for producing characterful fruit. The bodega itself is minimalist, a clean white structure designed, in simple terms, to best convey the essence of these grapes.
