Salentein Reserve 2021 is an excellent value, estate-grown, Uco Valley Malbec at $20. Dry, medium-plus-bodied and fragrant with ripe red berry, plum and spicy notes all balanced with fresh acidity. Enjoy it with lamb kebabs or game sausages from the grill. Drink or hold to 2029.

Malbec food pairings: lamb shanks in red wine and roasted garlic, grilled lamb lollipops, stuffed lamb tenderloin.

Reviews and Ratings

Salentein Reserve 2021 is an excellent value Uco Valley Malbec at $20. Grapes were sourced from estate-owned vineyards in the Los Árboles and Paraje Altamira wine regions. The wine is dry, medium-plus-bodied, fragrant and spicy with ripe red berry, dark plum, mouth filling, silky and fresh on the palate. The wine was aged for 12 months in neutral American and French oak barrels (70%/30%). - Community Wine Reviews
