    Thanks to the winery's gravity-flow system, the hand-selected grapes Tare handled gently. Joined by fine acid structure and textured, chewy. and fleshy tannins, the supple mouthfeel is elongated by a flow of juicy plum and strawberry. Second- ary notes of lavender and balsamic, along with roasted coffee and chocolate, enhance the toasted-ce- dar finish. Aged eight to ten months in French and American oak.

    COMMENTARY: The 2019 Antigal Uno Malbec is lively from start to finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine offers aromas and flavors of blackberries, tar, and savory spices. Pair it with grilled Korean short ribs. (Tasted: May 20, 2023, San Francisco, CA)

    This wine shows good concentration and freshness. Aromas of eucalyptus, strawberry, cherry, and chalk shape the nose. There is a balance between red fruit, oak, tannin, and acidity. Notes of chocolate and mint add complexity to the palate. It's great value.

    Offers a brambly blackberry cast, with violet, thyme and mineral notes joining in around fresh acidity. The flavors persist on the finish around firm tannins. Drink now through 2028.

    Ripe blackberries, blueberries, tar and some sweet spices. A hint of fig, too. The palate is rich and round with caressing, chalky tannins in the middle.

Antigal Winery Video

 Antigal Winery was established on the site of a historic winery in Maipú, Mendoza - Argentina, whose origin dates back to 1897. For this reason, the winery was named "Antigal"; it is a creole word that means "very old". With its completed refurbishment, the winery achieved the very best in high-tech functionality while respecting colonial architecture's original appearance.

The vineyards located at the Andes Mountain range foothills are uniquely planned relative to their terroir, elevation, and topography, obtaining the highest quality grapes.

The wines have been under the dedicated supervision of winemaker, Miriam Gomez. She is one of Argentina's most talented and accomplished winemakers. Her passion and dedication are reflected through all stages of winemaking, resulting in unusually elegant wines.

Celebrated for its bold flavors and supple texture, Malbec has enjoyed runaway success in Argentina since the late 20th century. The grape originated in Bordeaux, France, where it historically contributed color and tannin to blends. A French agronomist, who saw great potential for the variety in Mendoza’s hot, high-altitude landscape, brought Malbec to Argentina in 1868. Somm Secret—If you’re trying to please a crowd, Malbec is generally a safe bet with its combination of dense fruit and soft tannins.

Mendoza Wine

Argentina

View all products

By far the largest and best-known winemaking province in Argentina, Mendoza is responsible for over 70% of the country’s enological output. Set in the eastern foothills of the Andes Mountains, the climate is dry and continental, presenting relatively few challenges for viticulturists during the growing season. Mendoza, divided into several distinctive sub-regions, including Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley, is the source of some of the country’s finest wines.

For many wine lovers, Mendoza is practically synonymous with Malbec. Originally a Bordelaise variety brought to Argentina by the French in the mid-1800s, here it found success and renown that it never knew in its homeland where a finicky climate gives mixed results. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot and Pinot Noir are all widely planted here as well (and sometimes even blended with each other or Malbec). Mendoza's main white varieties include Chardonnay, Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
