100% Malbec
Their standard Malbec bottling, Durigutti’s Malbec “Clasico” represents what the brothers do best – combine elegance with a certain blue-collar rusticity. While this is in many ways due to the two differing backgrounds the brothers bring to the table, it is also largely due to the fruit. High altitude fruit from La Consulta adds structure, depth, and power, while bright fruit from Vistalba adds brightness and supple texture.
