The Chopping Block Malbec 2024, Mendoza
£9.00
This is a wine created with the same care and dedication as the perfect asado, a time-honoured Argentinian ritual where meats are expertly prepared on the grill. The name Chopping Block pays homage to the central element of every asado – the sturdy wooden block where the meat is prepared. It’s here that the asador showcases his skill, selecting the finest cuts, chopping with intent, and setting the stage for a meal that brings people together. The grapes are sourced from the high-altitude vineyards of Mendoza, where the intense sun and cool nights create the ideal conditions for growing Malbec. The result is a wine with deep, dark fruit flavours – blackberry, plum, and cherry – layered with hints of spice and a subtle smokiness, mirroring the essence of the grill. The chopping block is where the preparation ends and the feast begins; it’s a symbol of craftsmanship, tradition, and the promise of something unforgettable.
