Nieto Don Nicanor Malbec 2024 - 6 x 750ml Bottles Description
Nieto Don Nicanor Malbec is brooding and intense. A classic Malbec from Nieto's premium Agrelo vineyards, with flavours reminiscent of those desert soils. Dark, dense complex nose with sweet cranberries, blackberries and rich mocha characters. The palate is smooth and rounded with supple tannins and a long intense pure finish with hints of bitter chocolate and spice.
On the nose, expect layers of dark stone fruit - plum and blackberry - interwoven with cocoa powder, dried herbs, and a whisper of leather. The wine opens gradually, revealing deeper mineral notes that speak to the terroir's volcanic influence. Mid-palate reveals velvety tannins that coat the mouth with ripe fruit and subtle oak integration.
The finish is persistent and elegant, with lingering notes of dark chocolate, black pepper, and a touch of graphite minerality that extends for several seconds.
Best enjoyed at 16–18°C, this wine pairs beautifully with grilled meats, aged cheeses, and rich stews.
