Canopus 'Malbec De Sed' 2022

$22.00

Gabriel Dvoskin founded Canopus in 2010, returning to his native Argentina after traveling the world as a journalist and working harvests in Burgundy and Friuli. After some searching, he found what he was looking for in the southern Uco valley to set up his own winery: a cool vineyard site at 900-1050m elevation, with calcareous soils, suited to organic and biodynamic agriculture. The grapes for this 'Malbec of Thirst' were harvested by hand a bit earlier than the rest of the Malbec at the estate, then fermented and aged in concrete vats for freshness; a touch of Chardonnay is added to keep things cool and highly drinkable. This is a big departure from the common industrial, opaque styles of Malbec in Argentina, with far more lift and drinkability.
