Petit Chateau Cristi Malbec

Red wine · 750ml

A young Malbec from the Petit range, made in the traditional way with a long maceration on the skins. The grapes grow on the estate vineyards at Găvănoasa, in southern Moldova. Full and velvety on the palate, with moderate tannins and balanced acidity, an approachable red that still holds its shape.
