A fresh, fruit-forward Malbec in a handy half-bottle -- exactly the right pour for a weeknight dinner for two or a solo glass without opening a full bottle. Altos las Hormigas was founded in 1995 by winemaker Alberto Antonini and Antonio Morescalchi, who bet on Malbec as a terroir grape when everyone else was chasing Cabernet, and became pioneers of site-driven Argentine Malbec. The Clasico is their everyday cuvee: 100% Malbec from Mendoza's high-desert vineyards at the foot of the Andes, fermented in stainless and raised in concrete to keep it lively rather than oaky. This is Malbec built for pleasure, not power.

More about Altos las Hormigas

In 1995, when everyone else was planting Cabernet Sauvignon, winemaker Alberto Antonini and entrepreneur Antonio Morescalchi bet everything on Malbec in Mendoza. They were right. Altos las Hormigas pioneered terroir-driven Malbec with biodynamic farming, minimal intervention, and deep knowledge of places like Altamira and Gualtallary. Antonini's global palate brings new ideas every vintage. These are unshowy, ambitious wines from people who actually understand what they're doing.

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Grilled steak or burgers, empanadas, pizza, roast vegetables, or anything off the grill. The half-bottle size makes it ideal alongside a simple dinner for one or two.

Tasting Profile

Juicy blueberry, plum and cherry with a floral violet lift and a touch of sage. Medium-bodied, with vigorous acidity and soft, supple tannins. Ready to drink, fresh finish.
