frequently asked questions (faqs)
What is the specific origin and winery of this red wine?
This imposing collector's red wine is passionately crafted by the prestigious and iconic La Santísima Trinidad winery. Its specific origin strictly comes from its own high-altitude vineyards located in the magical and historic surroundings of San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico.
Is this wine dry, semi-dry, or sweet?
La Santísima Trinidad Reserva Malbec is a strictly dry wine. It boasts a very expressive, ripe, and opulent fruit character on the nose that might suggest aromatic sweetness, but on the palate, it is a fully fermented wine, robust, and free of residual sugars.
Is it necessary to decant or aerate this Malbec Reserva?
Yes, as it is a highly concentrated wine with 12 months of aging in new French oak barrels, it is strongly recommended to decant it in a wide-based decanter 30 to 45 minutes before serving. This allows it to open up aromatically and soften its tannins from the first sip.
What is the aging potential of this wine in my personal cellar?
Thanks to the fantastic concentration provided by the high-altitude vineyards and its robust structure forged in French oak, this Reserva boasts a magnificent aging potential of 6 to 8 years under optimal conditions (horizontal bottle, constant temperature, and no light), where it will continue to gain elegance and complexity.
