AMAZING VALUE!

Greatest Wine Value in the World?
We only have 50 cases left!!
We are able to offer unbelievable prices when we buy a full container (700 cases) directly from Argentina. We have already sold a ton of this wine at a much higher price, now we are passing our savings along to you. You do not see very many wines for $7.99 that score 90 points from The Wine Advocate. This is an amazing wine for everyday drinking while you are trying to save money.


2008 Maipe Malbec....$7.99

100% Malbec. Manual harvested.
35 years old vines.

"The 2008 Malbec is a glass-coating purple color with a striking perfume of violets, black cherry, and black raspberry. Exhibiting surprising complexity for its price category, the wine has gobs of fruit, savory flavors, and excellent depth and length. It is an outstanding value for drinking over the next 3-4 years.

Alberto Antonini (think Altos Las Hormigas) is a consultant at Maipe which in and of itself is an indicator that the winery is focused on quality."
Rated 90/100 The Wine Advocate



"Maipe was the Lord of the Winds for the ancient Andean people. Argentineans still invoke his name to clear the skies after a heavy rain or to temper the summer heat. These wines, children of the Sun and the Winds, are produced from grapes grown at the foothills of the Andes Mountains at an altitude of 3,000 feet above sea level. The intense color and aromas capture the expression of the soils that gave them birth." - importer

(We also got in more of the Maipe Torrontes, Chardonnay, Rose of Malbec, and Cabernet)
