Portillo Malbec

Portillo Malbec 2025 – Salentein

A cracking introduction to Argentinian Malbec: juicy, smooth and packed with fruit without becoming heavy or jammy. Portillo Malbec comes from the Uco Valley in Mendoza and is made from 100% Malbec, with plenty of the generous fruit the grape is loved for. BodegaSalentein.com

Plum and blackberry lead the way, followed by fresh red and dark fruit flavours and soft, rounded tannins. There’s a lovely freshness running through it too, keeping everything balanced and seriously drinkable, before a long, gently sweet-fruited finish. BodegaSalentein.com

An easy-going red with enough flavour to keep Malbec fans happy, but smooth enough to win over anyone who normally steers clear of bigger reds.
