Single Vineyard MALBEC: Among the 50 Best Wines in the World

The constant search for excellence has its rewards. Rutini Single Vineyard, our line of wines of origin, was selected as BEST IN SHOW by DECANTER in its World Wine Awards.

The recent award given to Single Vineyard Gualtallary Malbec 2021 reflects our commitment: the remarkable consistency in quality and the conviction of our team to express the best that each terroir has to offer.

Since its launch in 2015, Single Vineyard has embodied a vision of precision. Each wine is sourced from a single vineyard in the Uco Valley – such as Gualtallary or Altamira – and seeks to capture the unrepeatable essence of its origin. Decanter’s recognition, one of the most coveted in the world, is testimony to this: among more than 18,000 wines tasted blind, Gualtallary Malbec 2021 made it to the exclusive Best in Show category, where less than 1% of the labels presented reach.

This milestone adds to the excellent scores received by other wines from the line in key wine world reports. Tim Atkin highlighted the Single Vineyard Gualtallary Cabernet Franc 2021 with 95 points, defining it as a “delicious expression of the vintage”, and gave the same rating to the Single Vineyard Gualtallary Malbec 2021, describing it as “serious, compact and with great cellaring potential”.

In the Descorchados 2024 Guide, the same Malbec reached 96 points, while the Single Vineyard Altamira Malbec 2021 was distinguished with 95 points and highlighted as one of the best wines of its terroir.

James Suckling previously highlighted Single Vineyard among the must-try wines of our country, including it in his Top 100 Wines of Argentina 2023 ranking, with 95 points for the Malbec and 94 points for the Cabernet Franc, both from Gualtallary.

Through each vintage, Single Vineyard confirms that behind each bottle there is more than a wine: there is a story of dedication, knowledge and respect for the vineyard. Each recognition along this path is a demonstration not only of the brilliant present of Argentine wine, but also of a promising future.
