About this wine

El Payador Malbec is a vibrant Argentine red, bursting with dark berry aromas and subtle oak spice. The palate delivers plush blackberry and raspberry flavours balanced by chalky tannins and a dry, savoury finish. Medium-bodied and food-friendly, it pairs beautifully with rosemary and garlic lamb backstraps or chargrilled meats.

Producer: El Payador

The Payada is a competitive composing and singing of verses native to Argentina, usually accompanied by guitar. The performer is called a Payador and in performances, two or more payadores will compete to produce the most eloquent verse, each answering questions posed by the other, often insulting.

El Payador is a contemporary and fruit driven Argentinian Malbec created in partnership with third generation Mendoza winemaker Jorge Daniel Falasco. The wine is sourced from a single high altitude vineyard at over twelve hundred metres above sea level and primarily matured in season French oak.

Food pairing suggestions

This wine is a perfect match for rich red meats like beef, lamb, and venison, especially grilled, barbecued, or roasted. Aged cheeses like cheddar and parmesan, along with dishes seasoned with black pepper or smoky flavours, complement it beautifully.

It also pairs beautifully with grilled or barbecued pork, smoked meats, and cured cuts like salami and prosciutto. Mushrooms, tomato-based dishes, garlic, roasted capsicum, pasta, potatoes, and crusty bread make excellent matches.
