Juicy with sweet tannins, good natural acidity that provides very particular freshness, combined with a long finish. Making this wine very fresh and easy to drink.
Food pairing: grilled meats, charcuterie, pasta with tomato sauce, and even slightly chilled with tapas or pizza.
Santa Julia Tintillo was created as a fresh, modern take on Argentine red wine, blending two of the country’s signature grapes — Malbec and Bonarda. The idea was to craft a wine that breaks away from the heavy, oak-driven reds Argentina is often known for, and instead offer something vibrant, juicy, and easy to drink. Made with carbonic maceration, a technique more common in Beaujolais, Tintillo emphasizes bright fruit, floral aromas, and soft tannins. It’s designed to be enjoyed slightly chilled, making it perfect for warm days, casual meals, and social gatherings. The name “Tintillo” itself reflects this playful spirit — a lighter, fun expression of Argentine reds that invites people to discover a new side of Malbec and Bonarda.
