Zolo Mendoza Malbec

Winery Notes

The Zolo winery was founded by Patricia Ortiz, one of Argentina’s leading women in wine. Zolo under Patricia’s leadership stays true to her vision of creating wines with elegance and identity, yet approachable and friendly. The winery is located at the foothills of the Andes in Argentina’s premier region, Lujan de Cuyo, and all the grapes come from 100% estate-grown fruit. The wines are concentrated and balanced, true to their terroir. The name Zolo is a tribute to Patricia’s husband, who was often left “solo  zolo” while Patricia was working at the winery. Patricia has a strong belief in sustainable practices because it is our responsibility to meet the needs of today without compromising the future. In addition to her wines following sustainable practices at all levels, she also gives back to her community in many ways, from supporting education through scholarships and funding, to raising llamas to provide wool for local women weavers.

Tasting Notes

Berries, ash and violets on the nose, following through to a medium body with creamy tannins and juicy finish. Lots of fruit and fine tannins. Delicious
