2023 | La Cayetana Malbec "El Corazón Manda" | Uco Valley | Argentina

The cool-climate Uco Valley sister project of cult producer Ver Sacrum — Malbec with a pulse.

La Cayetana is the sister label of Ver Sacrum, the acclaimed Maipú-based producer. "El Corazón Manda" ("the heart commands") is its Malbec from the Uco Valley — one of Mendoza's coolest, highest sub-regions — made in a fresh, energetic style far from the jammy Malbec cliché.

Cool-climate Uco Malbec from a cult-adjacent producer is the smart-money Argentine buy. High-altitude, fresh-styled, small-production → the Ver Sacrum pedigree does the talking → at $54.99 you're drinking serious Uco Malbec.
