Technical Data Sheet
CHARACTERISTICS
  • TypeRed wine
  • Location Mendoza
  • Grapes 100% Malbec
  • Sensations The nose offers wonderful aromas of wild dark fruits, vanilla and chocolate. The palate is complex and rich, with soft, ripe tannins and a long finish
  • Vinification Grapes from two very different areas: our estate in Perdriel, on the banks of the Mendoza River, with stony, clay soils, and with patches of caliche that we combine with the limestone and elevation soils of Gualtallary, 1,400 meters above sea level. Two worlds that, put together, achieve good sucrosity and freshness at the same time. The clusters are de-stemmed and arrive naturally by gravity in small concrete vats. They ferment without the addition of foreign substances and at temperatures between 26 and 28°C for several weeks. Aging continues in used French oak barrels until the next harvest.

    Malbec "The Apple doesn't fall far from the three" Mendoza 2021
  • The apple never falls far from the tree, and this wine best represents Bodega Matias Riccitelli's passion for winemaking. An enological talent that is easy to find in this pure Malbec. A fascinating wine that draws its unique characteristics from the skillful combination of grapes from two distinctive areas of Lujan de Cuyo, Argentina. Specifically, those harvested from the Perdriel estate, located on the banks of the Mendoza River, benefit from stony, clay soils with patches of caliche. Those from Gualtallary, at 1400 meters above sea level, grow instead on limestone soils. This combination of different terroirs results in a wine that expresses a perfect harmony between "sucrosity and freshness." Spontaneously fermented in small cement vats, for maturation the winemaker uses used French oak barrels, giving the wine complexity and structure. Wonderful aromas of wild dark fruits, vanilla and chocolate on the nose. In the mouth, complex and rich, with soft, ripe tannins and a long, enveloping finish. To put it at ease on the table, just pair it with savory grilled lamb or beef dishes.

    Riccitelli Wines is a young and colorful winery founded in 2009 by Matias Riccitelli, an Argentine winemaker who gained experience working at some of the most prestigious wineries in the country and around the world. The winery is located in Las Compuertas, the highest area of Lujan de Cuyo, 1100 meters above sea level. Here, on 20 hectares of uncultivated vineyards, grapes are harvested from old vines. Riccitelli Wines, however, also works with small producers who own plots at different altitudes, between 1,000 and 1,700 meters above sea level, in Gualtallary, Chacayes, Vistalba, Las Compuertas and La Carrera. Riccitelli Wines' goal is to enhance the expression of terroir, striving for vibrant wines that express the great diversity of Argentine soils. Then, in 2015, the winery began a new project to enhance the old vineyards of Argentine Patagonia, planted in the late 1960s in the upper Rio Negro valley.
