Hailing from a region that is deeply rooted in Malbec, it is no surprise that Don Miguel Gascón wines similarly revolve around the now-famous Bordeaux grape. However, before introducing Malbec varietal wines, Don Miguel crafted distinctive red blends from a variety of Argentine grapes. This wine has been brought back to life through our new Malbec-led Red Blend, Colosal: a blend of Malbec, Bonarda, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon.
From the Wine Maker – “Since 1884, the wines of Don Miguel Gascon have been recognized for the rich, smooth flavors that come from Argentina’s Mendoza wine region. First introduced in Argentina in 1890, Colosal is a bold and delicious Malbec based red blend that displays the ripe red and black fruit flavors of Bonarda and Syrah, and the deep, rich character of Cabernet Sauvignon. Colosal’s soft and round tannins are complemented by layers of blackcherry, dark cherry, spices and licorice.”
