AltoLandon Mil Historias Organic Malbec 2024
High‑altitude vineyards, extreme diurnal shifts, organic farming and a winemaker determined to push boundaries. This is Mil Historias Malbec , crafted by Rosalia Molina at Bodegas Altolandon in the wild, elevated plains of Manchuela. At 1,100 metres above sea level, the vines grow in conditions that test their limits, producing fruit of remarkable intensity, freshness and purity. The result is a Spanish Malbec with depth, lift and a vivid sense of place, shaped by native yeasts, minimal intervention and ageing split between French oak and clay amphorae. A wine born from altitude, biodiversity and meticulous care. Why You'll Love It This is Malbec with altitude‑driven energy and organic clarity. It delivers powerful dark fruit wrapped in floral lift, spice and natural freshness, offering a style that feels both bold and beautifully refined. The combination of amphora and oak ageing adds texture without heaviness, allowing the fruit to shine. Vegan, organic and full of character, it is a bottle that stands apart from more conventional expressions. Vineyard and Production The grapes come from a 20‑year‑old organic and biodynamic vineyard set on a flat plain surrounded by mountains, where cool nights and long sunny days create perfect balance. Hand‑harvested after mid‑October, the fruit undergoes spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts, gentle extraction and extended skin contact. Ageing takes place in third‑use French oak and clay amphorae, giving complexity, structure and a subtle earthiness while preserving purity. Natura l stabilisation during the region’s freezing winter completes the process. Tasting Notes Expect concentrated flavours of blackberry, blueberry and plum layered with violet, rose and rosemary. Notes of cocoa, mint, earth, espresso, tobacco, dark chocolate and black pepper add depth and intrigue. Fine tannins and lively acidity give structure and lift, creating a finish that is long, complex and expressive. Perfect Pairings A superb match for lamb
Orube Rioja Garnacha 2021
' The most recent addition to the Orube collection at Slurp, the Orube Garnacha is made from 100% Garnacha grapes, picked at optimum ripeness. 8 months ageing in selected French oak barrels gives the wine great structure, balance and character. Garnacha is one of the most planted grapes in Rioja and often used in the traditional blends. This wine demonstrates just how good the grape can be on its own and offers something unique to what one normally expects from a Riojan red. '
