The Santa Rita 120 Reserva Especial Malbec is a vibrant Chilean red crafted from carefully selected Malbec grapes grown in the Central Valley. Santa Rita’s 120 range is renowned for offering expressive varietal character and excellent value, and this Malbec highlights the winery’s dedication to producing approachable yet distinctive wines that reflect the terroir and tradition of Chilean winemaking.

Tasting Notes

This Reserva Especial Malbec opens with ripe aromas of blackberry, plum and cherry, layered with hints of violet and sweet spice. The palate is smooth and generous, delivering juicy dark fruit flavours supported by subtle notes of cocoa and vanilla. Soft tannins and balanced acidity create a supple texture, while the finish is long and rounded with lingering fruit and gentle spice.

Vineyard & Production

The grapes are sourced from selected vineyards in Chile’s Central Valley, where warm days and cool nights allow Malbec to develop both richness and freshness. Fermentation is carefully controlled to preserve varietal purity, and a portion of the wine is aged in oak barrels to add depth and complexity without overshadowing the fruit. The result is a wine that combines vibrancy with structure, making it a standout in the 120 Reserva Especial range.

Food Pairing

A versatile partner for food, this Malbec pairs beautifully with grilled meats, barbecued ribs, hearty stews, empanadas, or a rich mushroom risotto. Its fruit-forward style and smooth texture also make it an excellent choice for casual dining, from rustic pizzas to charcuterie boards.
