Mauricio Lorca "Poetico" Malbec – the pure face of the variety
Mauricio Lorca "Poetico" Malbec is a red wine that puts the true character of the grape front and centre. It is deliberately made without oak ageing, so every typical Malbec aroma and its natural freshness appear clean and unmasked in the glass.
Aroma and flavour profile
The wine opens with a deep, dark ruby-red colour that immediately suggests concentration and intensity. On the nose, ripe sour cherry, plum and black cherry dominate, supported by subtle floral and spicy notes. Thanks to the absence of barrel ageing, the fruit remains the focus, and every sip feels fresh, lively and direct.
On the palate it sits between medium and full-bodied, with silky tannins and well-balanced acidity. Flavours of red and black berries – cherry, blackberry and blueberry – are joined by gentle spice and a hint of minerality. The finish is medium in length, clean and fruit-driven, leaving a pleasantly dry, refreshing impression.
Style and serving occasions
This Malbec is ideal for those who enjoy fruit-forward, easy-drinking yet serious red wines. Its barrel-free style makes it a great choice for anyone who prefers the grape’s natural aromas over pronounced oak and vanilla notes.
It works beautifully for relaxed evenings and casual get-togethers, but its elegant appearance also suits more festive tables. For best enjoyment, serve slightly chilled at 60–64 °F (16–18 °C), where its fruit and structure show at their finest.
Food pairing ideas
Mauricio Lorca "Poetico" Malbec pairs well with a wide range of dishes. Try it with grilled beef, roasted pork tenderloin, flavourful chicken dishes or medium-aged hard cheeses. Its juicy fruit profile also complements tomato-based pastas, lasagne and hearty vegetable stews.
If you are looking for an Argentine Malbec that expresses the power, fruit and elegance of the variety without any oak influence, Mauricio Lorca "Poetico" Malbec is a reliable, characterful choice in the world of red wines.
