El Enemigo 2023 Malbec

Tasting Notes

The El Enemigo 2023 Malbec shows the hallmark depth and elegance that define this celebrated Argentine label, offering a vibrant aromatic profile of ripe blackberries, plum, violets, and subtle graphite, supported by hints of cocoa and sweet spice from careful oak influence. On the palate it is plush yet structured, with concentrated dark fruit, fine tannins, and a long, mineral‑tinged finish that reflects its high‑altitude origins in Mendoza. While the wine is predominantly Malbec, it traditionally incorporates small percentages of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, adding aromatic lift, tension, and savory complexity. Its richness and balance make it a natural partner for grilled steaks, chimichurri‑marinated meats, roasted mushrooms, aged cheeses, empanadas, and hearty dishes featuring herbs or smoke. The 2023 vintage continues the winery’s strong critical trajectory, earning praise for its purity of fruit, depth, and age‑worthy structure, with reviewers highlighting its finesse, expressive aromatics, and exceptional value within the premium Malbec category.
