"Walter Bressia founded his family winery in 2003, having been working in the industry in Mendoza since the 1980s. His Monteagrelo is rich, Andean and rustic, like blackberry jam with all the pips; this wine has a direct, open sunniness that seems to convey the thin mountain atmosphere. Some lilac complexity and fresh fruit power it through the coffee-bean finish, which takes front-and-center stage a day after opening."

"Although this wine was originally 100% from Agrelo, today it also includes grapes from cooler zones in the Uco Valley. This malbec has black fruits and floral touches in a red that’s medium bodied but that also has very potent tannins that prickle on the tongue. An ideal wine for lamb"

"Aromas of ripe blackcurrants, stewed cherries, chocolate, charred bark and dried herbs. It’s full-bodied with firm, creamy tannins. Ripe, rounded finish, yet reserved and tight. Nicely bitter at the end. Drink or hold."

"The 2019 Malbec Monteagrelo is a blend of grapes from the Uco Valley and Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza and was aged for 10 months in French vats. Garnet red in the glass, the nose offers notes of ripe plum and oak with hints of biscuit and pepper. Slick and broad, the voluminous flow brings gentle tannins and freshness. It’s creamy at the back of the mouth with hints of fruit. - Joaquín Hidalgo"

"The Bressias use a 50/50 blend of Luján de Cuyo and Uco Valley Malbecs to make this smooth, supple, perfumed red, ageing the result in French and American oak. Sweet blueberry and raspberry fruit flavours are embellished by a twist of vanilla spice. 2023-28"
