The Astica Malbec offers a pure, fruit driven example of Argentina’s signature grape. Medium in body with juicy berry flavors and a finish of soft tannins.
Astica was born in Argentina’s booming Cuyo region, which encompasses the provinces of San Juan, San Luis and Mendoza. Booming because Argentina is the world’s fifth-largest wine producer and much of the production is focused in Cuyo’s Mendoza province. Bordering Chile, the Cuyo region is situated along the eastern side of the Andes mountain chain.
Vibrant, eye-catching packaging fits with the meaning of Astica, which is an indigenous word for ‘flower’ in Argentina. The wines are produced from hand picked fruit in the Cuyo Region and vinified in a fresh, fruit-forward style.
