Tilia
Malbec Syrah
The Tilia wines are made by Leopoldo Kuschnaroff, winemaker and viticulturist in Eastern Mendoza.
As Argentina's signature Malbec continues to rise in popularity, so too does the quality of the wines being produced. Additionally, many winemakers are creating some exciting blends using Malbec like this Malbec-Syrah blend. The grapes for this wine are sourced from vineyards in the Eastern and Southern regions of Mendoza with an elevation ranging from 2,600 to 4,300 feet above sea level.
Wine Production
Tilia is named after the tree commonly found in Argentina’s wine country. For years, vineyard workers have used the flowers of the Tilia to make an herbal tea for enjoyment after a hard day’s work. The name Tilia was chosen in honor of this Argentinean tradition.
Tasting Notes
This wine is dark purple in color with violet tones. It has aromas of black cherries and blueberries with hints of coffee, vanilla, pepper, and smoke. Full-bodied on the palate, the wine has rich flavors of concentrated cassis, black raspberries, and cranberries with notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, and spice on the long, silky finish.
Food Pairing
Pair this red blend with a spicy meat dish like Szechuan Noodles with Spicy Beef Sauce.
