François Lurton-Bodega Piedra Negra Malbec RESERVA 2023 0,75l
This Malbec from the Uco Valley combines dark fruit with the freshness of high‑altitude vineyards. The nose reveals blackberry, black cherry and subtle floral nuances. The palate is precise, juicy and well structured, lifted by vibrant acidity. Gentle spice and cocoa notes add depth. The tannins are polished and harmonious. An elegant Malbec, highly versatile with grilled dishes and savoury cuisine.
At the foothills of the Andes in Argentina, in Mendoza’s Uco Valley, François Lurton-Bodega Piedra Negra feels like a high‑desert experiment turned grand: a pioneer estate built on 200 hectares of virgin land, now within the Geographical Indication of Los Chacayes, at more than 1,100 metres....
Malbec, also called Côt in France, is known for deep colour, plum, blackberry, black cherry, violet and spicy notes. Styles range from smooth and fruit-driven to powerful and structured.
It pairs especially well with steak, grilled meats, lamb, braised dishes, mushrooms and mature cheese. Malbec is exciting because it shows both Argentine richness and the firmer, traditional character of Cahors.
