Malbec's journey to Argentina began in the mid-19th century when cuttings were brought from France. While Malbec struggled in its native Bordeaux, it found a new home in the high-altitude vineyards of Mendoza, Argentina, where it thrived and became the country's signature grape. The history of winemaking in Mendoza is linked to European immigrants who brought viticultural expertise and traditions.

Piedra Negra Malbec from Mendoza typically offers a rich and complex flavor profile, showcasing the characteristics of the terroir and the Malbec grape. Expect dark fruit notes, subtle spice, and a smooth finish.
Expect bold flavors of blackberry, plum, and cherry, often accompanied by hints of violet, chocolate, and vanilla. The high-altitude vineyards contribute to the wine's concentration and structure. Oak aging, if employed, adds notes of vanilla, cedar, or toast. Well-structured tannins and balanced acidity create a lingering, satisfying finish. Some vintages may exhibit earthy undertones.

Serving Temperature
Serve Piedra Negra Malbec slightly below room temperature, around 60-65°F (15-18°C), to allow the flavors and aromas to fully express themselves. Avoid serving it too warm, as this can accentuate the alcohol and mask the fruit.
Decanting
For older vintages or wines with noticeable tannins, decanting can help soften the tannins and release the wine's aromas. A decanting time of 30-60 minutes is usually sufficient.
Food Pairing
Pair Piedra Negra Malbec with grilled red meats (especially steak), hearty stews, hard cheeses (like aged cheddar or Gouda), and dark chocolate. The wine's bold flavors and tannins complement these rich and savory dishes.
