HJ Fabre Gran Reserva Malbec 2023


Hervé Fabre is a hero of both Malbec and Argentina. He left his native Bordeaux and its grand wines in the early 1990s in search of new and exciting wine territory in which to invest. He was heading for Chile but was side-tracked by old Malbec vineyards in Argentina and never left. Hervé now runs one of the leading estates in Mendoza, and has won a string of national and international Golds and Trophies, as well as 90+ scores from critics.
HJ Fabre Gran Reserva Malbec is a dense, velvety red wine made from the hand-picked fruit of 80-year-old vines in Mendoza, a region with “the terroir to produce not just good but truly great Malbec” (Decanter).
Matured for a year in fine French oak, it’s a complex, elegant style that will age well. For now, decant early and serve with a fine cut of beef.
