Nuestro Malbec Clásico fue elegido Vino de la Semana en el diario británico The Telegraph. En un artículo titulado “’Less malbec and more Argentina’: Why our favourite red wine has been given a mellow makeover” la periodista Victoria Moore habla con Alberto Antonini, de quien cita: “Antonini was happy to back malbec, though. “We [Altos Las Hormigas],” he says, “were the very first to focus exclusively on malbec.” From my perspective, Altos Las Hormigas has always made good wines within the parameters of what it was trying to achieve, but what Antonini seeks now – along with other like-minded winemakers – is “less malbec and more Argentina.” In other words, more “terroir-driven” wines, with more of a sense of place.”
Además, elige a nuestro Malbec Clásico 2018 como “Wine of the Week”: “There’s a pleasing freshness to this malbec. Most of the grapes come from Luján de Cuyo, with a little from high-altitude vineyards in the Uco Valley. There’s no oak – it’s vinified in stainless steel and then aged in concrete.”
