Manos Negras Malbec is a generously fruited Argentine red from Mendoza's Uco Valley, combining ripe blackberry and plum flavours with delicate violet aromas and a smooth, supple texture. Its dark fruit character is supported by refreshing balance and gentle tannins, creating a satisfying wine that offers richness without relying on pronounced oak flavours.
Created by acclaimed Argentine viticulturist Alejandro Sejanovich, Manos Negras reflects a commitment to expressing the character of high-altitude vineyards. French-oak maturation adds subtle texture and complexity while allowing the fruit to remain the main attraction. An inviting choice for anyone who enjoys a smooth, full-flavoured Malbec with freshness and balance.
Nose: Ripe blackberry, dark plum and black cherry aromas, accompanied by delicate violet notes and a gentle suggestion of spice.
Palate: Generously fruited and supple, with blackberry, plum and dark berry flavours. Fine tannins provide structure, while refreshing acidity balances the ripe fruit. The oak influence is restrained, allowing the wine's natural fruit and floral character to remain prominent.
Finish: Smooth and balanced, with lingering dark fruit, subtle spice and a gentle freshness.
Manos Negras Malbec comes from Mendoza's Uco Valley, where high-altitude vineyards benefit from abundant sunshine and cooler mountain nights. These conditions help Malbec develop generous dark fruit flavours while retaining the freshness needed for a balanced wine.
The wine is produced under the direction of Alejandro Sejanovich, who spent many years studying Argentina's vineyards and Malbec clones while working at Bodega Catena Zapata. His approach emphasises the relationship between vineyard conditions and the character of the finished wine.
Temperature-controlled fermentation and extended contact with the grape skins help develop the wine's colour, fruit concentration and structure. Subsequent maturation in French oak, predominantly using previously filled barrels, adds texture and subtle complexity without making oak flavours the defining feature.
Manos Negras Malbec is an enjoyable partner for grilled and roasted meats. Its dark fruit and supple tannins work particularly well with steak, roast beef, pork tenderloin and lamb.
Its balanced character also makes it suitable for roast turkey, mushroom dishes and tomato-based pasta sauces. Try it with grilled pork or roasted mushrooms, where the wine's fruit and gentle structure complement the food without overwhelming it.
Serve at approximately 16–18°C. Allowing the wine a little time in the glass will help its fruit and floral aromas develop.
