Mendoza DOC 'Gran Malbec' 2020 (750 ml.) Flecha de Los Andes
The Mendoza DOC “Gran Malbec” 2020 by Flecha de Los Andes is crafted from Malbec grapes sourced from 17-year-old vineyards at the foothills of the Andes, rooted in soils of stones, pebbles, sand, and gravel. Following a cold pre-fermentation maceration, traditional winemaking continues with aging in French oak barrels, adding elegance and complexity. It displays a deep red hue with intense aromas of ripe black fruits, violet, cocoa, and sweet spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with fine tannins and a long, persistent finish. Perfect with grilled red meats, game, and aged cheeses, it embodies the most authentic expression of Argentine Malbec.

Flecha de los Andes
Flecha de los Andes is a prestigious Argentine winery located at the foot of the Andes, in the renowned Uco Valley wine region of Mendoza. It was born from the partnership between Laurent Dassault (owner of Château Dassault in Saint-Émilion) and Benjamin de Rothschild, merging French savoir-faire with Argentina’s exceptional winemaking potential.
The vineyard sits at around 1,100 meters above sea level, where the high-altitude climate, sharp day–night temperature shifts, and poor, well-draining soils create the perfect conditions to craft wines of remarkable elegance and structure. The flagship grape is Malbec, grown using sustainable practices and hand-harvested, often blended with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon to enhance aromatic range and complexity.
Flecha de los Andes follows a philosophy centered on expressing the terroir’s purity: small-batch fermentations, maturation in French oak barrels, and meticulous care at every stage from vineyard to bottle. The wines are known for their deep color, rich aromas of dark fruit and spices, velvety tannins, and a perfect balance between power and freshness—qualities that have earned them international acclaim.
Beyond the wine itself, the estate celebrates both culture and landscape: its modern architecture harmonizes with breathtaking mountain views, offering guests an experience that blends fine wine tasting with full immersion in nature. A true icon for those seeking the authentic soul of Argentine wine, now also available through special selections from Vino45.

Clodomiro Silva S/N, Uco Valley, Argentina

Taste: Full-bodied and velvety, with fine, polished tannins supporting a rich and harmonious palate; long, persistent finish with fruity and spicy echoes.
