Proemio Reserve Petit Verdot

Proemio | Argentina

Winemaker Marcelo Bocardo believes that Argentina has more up its sleeve than brilliant Malbec. And when you taste this bottling of classic Bordeaux-variety Petit Verdot, you’ll agree. Complex aromas of black fruit and spice meet ample body and excellent structure. The tannins are silky, the acidity is crisp, the finish is long. What’s not to love?

About the producer
Organic-certified Proemio care not just for the environment, but also about having a positive role in the community. They source low-yield grapes from diverse terroirs and unique soils. Among the new-wave of Argentinian wineries, they avoid heavy oak ageing and let the purity of the grape variety and the vineyard landscape sing.

About the region
Set in a valley between the Cordón del Plata and the Cuchillas de Lunlunta, the Petit Verdot vineyard sees sparse summer rainfalls, warm days and cool nights. Rooted in the silt, clay and alluvial soils, grapes develop concentration of aroma and flavour, soft tannins and natural acidity. A recipe for perfection!

Food Pairing
Enjoy this wine with Braised Wild Boar Shoulder Croquettes with Mustard Mayonnaise. The wine's dark-fruit flavours tie in with the rich, flavoursome meat, while its spicy finish stands up to the mustard mayonnaise.
