Wine bottles in the Old and New collection.

Out of the ten wines that we preselected during our trip to Mendoza and Cafayate, two emerged as standouts during our blind tasting week. Interestingly, neither of them are Malbecs — despite a few making the initial cut. We also sampled some delicious Torrontés wines, but they were ultimately outshined by some French classics, perhaps reflecting a collective old world bias? Next time, we'll invite our new Argentinian friends to join us for the blind tasting!

This will be your 4th collection of 6 wines curated by maison vernhes. Have these exclusive selections delivered right to your door - from $180 per collection.

Blend Gran Reserva 2021

Maipú - Mendoza

This blend of composed of 40% Malbec, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Syrah, sourced from the Maipú and Agrelo regions in Mendoza. The vineyards are planted in alluvial soil with drip irrigation and benefit from a dry climate and excellent sun exposure. The vines are grown using a high trellis system. After cold maceration, the grapes are de-stemmed, crushed, and fermented for 25 days in stainless steel tanks, followed by natural malolactic fermentation. Then, the wine is aged for 18 months in first-use French and American oak barrels. The gran reserva has an intense violet color, with aromas of figs, coffee, red fruits, and floral notes. The palate is well-balanced, with integrated flavors from barrel aging. It can be stored for up to 10 years. It is best served at 9-10°C accompanied by red meats and elegant dishes.
