Odfjell Vineyards Orzada Malbec 2022

About

Odfjell wines come from a family-owned winery committed to making vibrant organic wines of the highest quality that express the unique personality of the vineyards by following principles of organic and biodynamic agriculture.

Terroir

Maule Valley, 170 m above sea level. The climate is temperate with a six-month
dry season and an annual rainfall of 700 mm. The high temperatures during the ripening period are moderated by cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean. The soil is sandy-clay loam with a presence of granite throughout the profile.

Vinification

The grapes were received and destemmed in our winery in Padre Hurtado. Alcoholic
fermentation took place spontaneously with native yeasts and lasted approximately 7
days with maximum temperatures of 24°–25° C in 40,000-liter stainless steel tanks.
Total maceration time was approximately 16 days. Malolactic fermentation took place
while the wine aged in stainless steel tanks.

Tasting Notes

Deep violet-red in color with elegant notes of black fruits, blackberries, flowers, and a bit of spice. The palate is juicy with round tannins and a long finish that recalls black fruits and tobacco notes.

Red meats. Barbeque, braised Lamb Shank with mint sauce and rustic potatoes, pulled pork sandwich with BBQ sauce.
