Specially Selected Mendoza Organic Malbec

2020 vintage; pours a still slightly hazy, bright medium intensity ruby; on the nose youthful yet complex, fruity, notes of fresh cherries and black currants, gentle spice; in the mouth velvety, young and bold, slightly tart black cherries, black and red berries, gently structured but broad, dry and rounded, juicy and fruity notes over baking spices in the background, some gentle oak notes; overall a fun little red which tastes like sunshine — 2 years ago

Elegant Tempranillo-based blend (I believe it includes some Albillo) from 100+ year-old biodynamically farmed vineyards in La Aguilera, one of the most desirable areas within the Ribera del Duero appellation. Aged in used French oak barrels for 14 months. Smooth, balanced, balsamic notes — 5 years ago

Alma de Cantaro

Bobal

Unusual Ribera del Duero single varietal from some very old Bobal vines found amongst the area’s predominant Tempranillo. Native to the Utiel-Requena region in Valencia, Bobal is a rustic and quite underrated variety known for its big compact bunches and high yield, traditionally used for bulk wine production. In Ribera del Duero, where it is known as Valenciana, it was traditionally used to add color and structure to blends, but rarely vinified on its own. Taking its name from the local expression “Alma de Cántaro” (loosely translated to fool, naïve) represents Magna Vides’ heroic attempt to reclaim Ribera del Duero’s lesser-known and disappearing varieties. Fragrant. Herbal, balsamic notes. Somewhat citric, acidic finish. — 5 years ago
