Distinction: Top 100 Wines of Argentina 2025 – James Suckling
Tutu Malbec Calcáreo Mix 2023 is a deep and authentic expression of the Uco Valley, crafted under a philosophy of minimal intervention that prioritizes a pure sense of place over any artifice. The project is built on gravity-flow winemaking, low extraction, the use of indigenous yeasts, and exclusive aging in concrete eggs, with the aim of conveying identity, typicity, and transparency in every bottle.
This Malbec comes from an exceptional blend of terroirs: selected parcels in Gualtallary and Paraje Altamira, combining contrasting yet complementary personalities. The soils—composed of 70% stones coated with calcium carbonate and a caliche layer at 30 to 40 cm—provide tension, freshness, and a distinctive mineral imprint.
"Austere on the nose and at the entry of the palate, the wine expands powerfully through the finish. Vertical, vibrant, and persistent, with juicy energy and a long, focused finish that blends the wild spice of Gualtallary with the fine, textured tannins of Altamira. A Malbec that gains depth and complexity over time."
A wine of character, balance, and precision, faithfully representing the spirit of TUTU: wines of peace, delicacy, and honesty, free from unnecessary embellishment.
