Zuccardi Malamado is Argentina's first fortified Malbec, crafted in the style of fine Port but with a distinctly Mendoza character. Deep purple in colour, it reveals aromas of ripe plums, dried figs and roasted nuts. Sweet, rich and complex on the palate, it shows layers of cinnamon spice and toasted almonds with a long, warming finish.

Why You'll Love It

This is fortified Malbec at its finest—rich, complex, and beautifully innovative. Zuccardi is one of Argentina's most pioneering wine estates, renowned for its innovation and exploration of terroir across Mendoza. Their Malamado range reflects a creative approach, reinterpreting traditional European styles with Argentina's flagship grape varieties. The result is a distinctive Argentine alternative to Tawny Port, offering exceptional richness and complexity with the unique character of Malbec.

Vineyard & Production

The Malbec grapes are sourced from alluvial soils in the Uco Valley, one of Mendoza's most celebrated wine-growing regions. High altitudes, sunny days and cool nights produce concentrated fruit with freshness and balance—an ideal foundation for this fortified wine. The wine is produced using classic fermentation methods, allowing natural residual sugar to remain before being fortified. It is then aged for just over two years in seasoned French oak, adding layers of complexity, spice and texture.

Tasting Notes

This distinctive fortified wine displays a soft purple hue, leading to aromas of overripe plums, dried figs and walnuts. The palate is rich and sweet, with warming notes of cinnamon, toasted almonds and subtle oak influence. The finish is velvety and lingering, offering a unique Argentine alternative to Tawny Port.

Perfect Pairings

A versatile dessert wine, perfect with chocolate desserts, blue cheeses, or enjoyed as a digestif. Also excellent with nut-based desserts, dried fruits, or after-dinner conversation.
