About the Producer

Founded in 1890 – with over 125 years’ history – La Celia is the oldest winery in the Uco Valley, Mendoza, Argentina. It was the first winery in the region to plant the Malbec variety, which is currently the country’s signature variety around the world. Eugenio Bustos arrived in the Uco Valley and planted the first Malbec vine from France, which he had received in exchange for his finest horse. Named in honour of his daughter, that is how the Finca La Celia was born.

Since then, it has been known as one of most historical wineries in Argentina. La Celia consists of over 400 planted vineyards, where it has strived to discover, maintain and tailor those varieties which are best suited to the Uco Valley’s climate.

Today winemaker Andrea Ferrerya is the competent and passionate guardian of that tradition.

Vineyard

Selected parcels of grapes grown on the high area of the Mendoza River.

Vinification

The Malbec grapes are picked at 70% in fresh profile and 30% in riper profile. Classic fermentation follows in concrete tanks for about 10 days at controlled temperature (26°-27°C).

Ageing

Ageing takes place in concrete tanks for 40% of the wine and 60% in concrete tanks with French oak staves for the remaining 60%. Then the blend is made and it remains in concrete tanks to stabilize until ready for bottling.

Tasting Notes

A rich, red-coloured wine with violet hues, La Celia Malbec Reserva blends notes of crushed wild berries, dark plums, herbs and cherries. Fresh in the mouth with intense flavours, soft tannins back up by a touch of truffle and vanilla.

Analysis

13.5% alcohol vol.

Food Suggestions

La Celia Malbec Reserva is an ideal wine for grilled meats. It also combines very well with pasta, mild to spicy cuisine and semi-hard cheeses such as Gouda, Edam or Gruyere.

Serving temperature: 17-19°C.

Cellar

May be cellared for 2-3 years in bottles stored horizontally in cool, dark conditions. La Celia Malbec Reserva is also ready to drink.
