Antigal UNO Malbec 2023 – Mendoza, Argentina – 90 Points

A striking expression of Argentina’s signature grape from Antigal Winery & Estates, produced from vineyards across Mendoza’s renowned wine-growing regions. The UNO Malbec 2023 displays a deep violet-red colour and an expressive bouquet of ripe plum, strawberry and blackberry, complemented by floral violet notes and touches of vanilla, chocolate and subtle spice. On the palate, it is smooth and generous, combining juicy red and black fruit with fresh natural acidity, soft rounded tannins and a silky texture leading to a persistent, fruit-driven finish. The wine is matured for approximately 10 months, with part aged in French and American oak and part retained in stainless steel, preserving freshness while adding complexity and gentle oak character. Awarded 90 points by Wine Enthusiast, this is an accessible yet polished Mendoza Malbec presented in Antigal’s immediately recognizable UNO bottle, distinguished by its metal “1” plaque.
