Product Description
Familia Durigutti
Hector and Pablo were born in Mendoza, the cradle of wine, and were raised together. Their childhood and their home were always connected to a sensorial world, with aromas, ingredients, and flavors that, over time, motivated them to choose the path to become enologists. As adults, they would find these familiar memories and similar passions. Since 2002 they have been dedicated to their project as a small family winery. Today the brothers have evolved to form the new generation of winemakers, leading an evolutionary change in Argentina’s viticulture. With that same spirit, the Durigutti brothers craft their wines and have started to write their own history, a family legacy, in a chosen place where they live and work daily with dedication.
2015 Durigutti "Familia" Malbec, Mendoza, Argentina
91 Points, Wine & Spirits
Héctor and Pablo’s top bottling is their “Familia” Malbec. This modern, concentrated release originates from two heirloom-quality vineyards in Maipú (Lunlunta) and San Carlos (La Consulta). In order to add complexity and depth, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Bonarda, Petit Verdot, and Syrah were blended into the cuvée in small amounts. Grapes were fermented with native yeasts and the wine was neither filtered, fined, or cold-stabilized.
"This has plenty of blackcurrants, plum liqueur, creme de cassis, tar, vanilla and a touch of tobacco. Full body and deliciously juicy tannins, but this is also polished and very much dialed-in. There’s a driven line of acidity throughout, and the finish is fruity, chewy and structured. A blend of Malbec, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon. This is worth getting your hands on." – James Suckling
