Spicy, red-fruited Malbec is Argentina’s star red grape and commands legions of fans. In rosé form, it takes on a juicy, berry-rich freshness that always hits the spot.
We’re particularly excited about this one—it’s the pink sister to our popular Ascencion Malbec, arriving direct from Argentina’s oldest estate and some of the world’s highest vineyards…along with a tasty twist.
After working his magic in the cellar to create a fruit-packed pink Malbec, winemaker Jorge Noguera decided to add a dash of Torrontés, Argentina’s signature white grape. “I wanted to give the wine a pretty, floral edge,” he says. “I am very pleased with the final wine, and I think it will be a perfect part of any summer picnic.”
Mission accomplished (although we’d recommend tipping back this rosado all year long—so stock up now!). Ascencion delivers fresh-picked orange blossom and strawberry aromas, along with intense red cherry, red citrus and melon notes, plus a whistle-clean finish. It’s a guaranteed crowd pleaser and extremely versatile. Pair with burgers (chicken or beef), salads all manner of grilled fare, tomato-based stews and soups…almost anywhere your culinary imagination will take you. (Yes, takeout, too.)
