More Information
Northern Argentine winemaker Francisco “Pancho” Morelli’s wines are a must-have in any trendy Argentine restaurant whether it’s a roadside asado or a place with a Michelin star.
The secret, as you’ll see with this 2023, is versatility. Made from 100% malbec grapes from Cafayate and Pucará, grown at 6,561 feet. The rocky soils and sunny days create wines with freshness and concentration, aided by fermentation without oak.
Open this Chivatina and you’ll see what we mean by freshness and versatility. It eludes any specific categorization, serving just as well as a pairing for sea food as it does pizza. The red berry flavors will brighten and enhance a dish like garlic shrimp skewers. Vegetarians will appreciate a glass with a meal of roasted cauliflower and parmesan.
