About this wine

Tabalí Pedregoso Gran Reserva Malbec is a refined and mineral red wine from the coastal Limarí Valley in Chile , planted on alluvial soils enriched with calcareous veins along the southern bank of the Limarí River. The Espinal vineyard's unique geology, stony alluvial terraces interspersed with limestone dust deposited by ancient glaciers, gives the wine remarkable freshness and a distinct mineral character that sets it apart from other Chilean Malbecs. Why You'll Love It This is Chilean Malbec with a real difference, sourced from the cool, coastal Limarí Valley near the edge of the Atacama Desert rather than the warmer inland valleys. The unique limestone-rich terroir and coastal influence create a wine with exceptional freshness, minerality, and elegance that is genuinely unlike anything else from Chile. Viña Tabalí, established in 2002, is a pioneering producer recognised for precise, terroir-driven wines that capture the unique character of northern and central Chile's distinctive coastal and desert-influenced regions. Vineyard & Production Grapes are hand-harvested at optimal aromatic and phenolic ripeness from the Espinal vineyard in the Limarí Valley, picked into 20kg bins to preserve integrity and minimise damage. Fermentation takes place in small, temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by post-fermentation maceration to enhance structure and texture. The wine is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels to integrate flavours and achieve a polished, elegant finish. Tasting Notes Violet-red in the glass. The nose reveals ripe plums, sour cherries, red fruits, and delicate violet aromas. On the palate, the wine is vibrant and fresh, with fine tannins, lively acidity, and a long, fruity finish with distinctive mineral notes. Perfect Pairings Ideal for barbecues, grilled meats, hearty autumn dishes, roasted lamb, or empanadas. The fresh acidity also makes it excellent with tomato-based pasta dishes.
