Alamos Red Blend 750ml - Item Code: 08807
Tasting Notes and Characteristics:
Alamos Red Blend 750ml greets the palate with a smooth, approachable character that makes it perfect for lively gatherings or a cozy evening at home. With an ABV of 13.5%, this Argentine wine is crafted from grapes grown in the high-altitude vineyards of Mendoza, where cool nights and sunny days help develop balanced acidity and rich flavors. The blend typically features Malbec as its backbone, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, resulting in a harmonious expression of Argentina’s winemaking tradition.
In the glass, Alamos Red Blend reveals inviting notes of ripe plum, blackberry, and subtle hints of spice layered with soft tannins and a touch of vanilla from oak aging. These flavors make it an excellent companion to grilled steak, where its fruit-forward profile stands up beautifully to charred meats. It also pairs well with aged cheddar, as the wine’s structure and depth enhance the cheese’s nutty complexity while cleansing the palate between bites.
Producer Information: Alamos
Alamos is based in the Mendoza region of Argentina, a prime location nestled at the foothills of the Andes Mountains. The winery was established in 1902 by the Catena family, who played a pivotal role in elevating Argentine wine on the global stage. Alamos focuses on sustainable viticulture and leverages high-altitude vineyards to produce wines with vibrant acidity and expressive fruit character. Their production approach combines traditional winemaking techniques with modern technology, ensuring consistency and quality across their offerings.
Beyond their flagship Malbec, Alamos produces a diverse portfolio that includes varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Torrontés, and Bonarda. The winery also crafts blends that highlight regional terroir characteristics unique to Mendoza’s microclimates. While primarily focused on still wines, Alamos has expanded into limited releases of rosé and sparkling wines to cater to evolving consumer preferences. Their commitment to innovation is evident in small-batch experimental lots that explore lesser-known Argentine grapes and alternative fermentation methods.

Blended White Wine is a harmonious combination of various grape varieties, typically including Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Semillon, and Pinot Grigio. This style of wine is crafted through the blending process post-fermentation, allowing winemakers to create a balanced flavor profile that showcases crisp acidity and fruit-forward notes such as citrus and stone fruit, complemented by floral aromas and herbal undertones.
The texture of Blended White Wine can range from light to medium-bodied, with some variations exhibiting a creamy mouthfeel due to malolactic fermentation or a refreshing zestiness. Commonly originating from renowned regions like Bordeaux and the Loire Valley in France or California and Australia’s Margaret River, these wines pair beautifully with seafood dishes, poultry in light sauces, salads dressed with citrus vinaigrette, and soft cheeses. To fully appreciate their complex aromas—ranging from green apple to honeysuckle—serve them chilled at 45-50°F (7-10°C) in a white wine glass.
