WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Pablo y Walter Malbec is vinified using 100% Malbec grapes. The winemaking process focuses on preserving the natural fruit character of the grape. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, a technique chosen to maintain the wine's freshness and brightness. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes unoaked aging, meaning it is not matured in oak barrels. This method allows the inherent qualities of the Malbec fruit from Mendoza to be the primary focus of the wine's profile. The producer, Boutinot, has invested in specific equipment, such as new stainless steel tanks, to support this winemaking philosophy.
