2022 Manos Negras "Stone Soil" Malbec, Mendoza, Argentina
There are 6 units left in stock.
ABOUT THIS WINE
“Stone Soil” Malbec is sourced from select parcels in the Uco Valley, where stony alluvial soils and extreme elevations—up to 4,000 feet above sea level—create naturally low yields and grapes of remarkable intensity. The wine is 100% Malbec, hand-harvested, and fermented with native yeasts in small concrete vats, followed by aging in seasoned French oak barrels that add subtle depth without overpowering the fruit. The emphasis is on purity, tension, and a tactile sense of place.
This is a serious, age-worthy Malbec with a savory edge—ideal with grilled meats, braised short ribs, lentil stew, or aged cheeses like Manchego or Comté.
