Agua de Piedra Malbec Gran Reserva 2023 is a bold Argentine red wine that reflects the power and elegance of Mendoza’s high-altitude vineyards. Crafted from hand-selected Malbec grapes grown in the foothills of the Andes, this Gran Reserva represents the pinnacle of the winery’s production, with extended aging and meticulous winemaking techniques that bring out the grape’s full depth and complexity. The region’s unique terroir — marked by rocky soils, pure mountain water, and dramatic diurnal temperature shifts — allows for concentrated fruit flavors balanced by natural freshness and structure.
The 2023 vintage was carefully vinified to highlight richness and longevity. After fermentation, the wine was aged in oak barrels, where it developed additional layers of spice, texture, and refinement. The Gran Reserva classification underscores both the quality of the fruit and the extended maturation, resulting in a wine that is structured, expressive, and built for aging, while still being accessible in its youth.
The name Agua de Piedra, meaning “water of stone,” reflects the rugged Andean landscape and the purity of the environment where the grapes are grown. The Malbec Gran Reserva embodies this philosophy, offering an authentic taste of Argentina’s most famous varietal in its most elevated form. With its striking presentation and reputation for delivering quality, it has become a standout choice for both collectors and everyday enthusiasts of fine Malbec.
Agua de Piedra Malbec Gran Reserva 2023 is a powerful expression of Mendoza’s high-altitude terroir, showcasing the richness and elegance that Gran Reserva status demands. It opens with intense aromas of blackberry, plum, and dark cherry, layered with notes of cocoa, espresso, and vanilla from extended oak aging. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, offering concentrated black fruit flavors balanced by hints of spice, leather, and toasted oak. Firm tannins and vibrant acidity provide depth and balance, leading into a long, lingering finish marked by dark fruit, mocha, and subtle minerality.
This Malbec is built for bold, flavorful cuisine. As a Starter, it pairs beautifully with charcuterie, empanadas, or roasted mushrooms. For the Main Course, it shines with grilled ribeye, lamb chops, braised short ribs, or venison, where its depth and tannic backbone complement hearty, savory dishes. In the Cheese course, it works perfectly with aged manchego, blue cheese, or sharp cheddar, drawing out both savory and earthy flavors. For Dessert, it finds harmony with flourless chocolate cake, espresso brownies, or dark chocolate truffles, echoing its rich, dark-fruit-driven complexity.
