Eloquio - Malbec - Bio

Malbec has been cultivated in Puglia since the 1800s, traditionally playing a supporting role in red blends. With Eloquio, this noble grape finally takes the spotlight as the main actor, rewriting the story of Apulian reds. A wine that is truly eloquent in its quality and character, made to be shared on special occasions.

The style is all about structure and elegance. Its ruby-red color with violet reflections introduces a complex bouquet of red fruits like blackberry and plum, intertwined with notes of spice and rhubarb. On the palate, it shows long persistence, with fine, well-integrated tannins softened by a period of aging.

Eloquio shines with grilled red meats or hearty vegetable stews. Its versatility also makes it a perfect match for dishes such as salmon or mackerel, porcini mushrooms, or a board of semi-aged and aged cheeses.

Best served at 18°C · Alcohol: 13%
