Drink it now or cellar for up to 25 years. It is recommended to decant it for an hour. Located in Argentina, in the heart of the prestigious Mendoza wine region, Mendel Estate was founded by Anabelle Sielecki, with the help of renowned Argentine winemaker Roberto de la Mota. The winery, named after Annabelle's father, owns high-altitude vineyards in the Luján de Cuyo area. Finca Remota is a single-varietal red made from Malbec grapes from a plot on the Faraway Ranch, located approximately 1,100 meters above sea level in the Uco Valley. Here, the ungrafted vines, over 60 years old, thrive on sandy and calcareous soils, on a subsoil of massive limestone blocks, and in exceptional climatic conditions that guarantee the production of a powerful and aromatic wine. After harvesting and fermenting in tanks, the finished wine rests in new French oak barrels. In the glass, the wine reveals a deep, dark color with purple highlights. Its aromatic profile opens with intense notes of red and black fruit, interspersed with hints of violet on a spicy undertone. On the palate, it is concentrated and well-structured, complex and fruity, with firm yet smooth tannins. It is a balanced wine with perfectly integrated oak notes and a long, persistent finish. Try it with grilled duck breast or a succulent steak.
