Intipalka Malbec is an expressive red wine born in Peru’s Ica Valley—a region where intense sunlight and mineral-rich soils combine to yield concentrated, flavorful fruit. Crafted from 100% Malbec grapes grown in elevated vineyards, this wine delivers power, elegance, and a distinct sense of place.

Hand-harvested and carefully vinified, Intipalka Malbec opens in the glass with deep ruby color and vivid aromas of ripe dark cherry, chocolate, and black fruits. The palate unfolds with smooth tannins, subtle leather and licorice notes, balanced acidity, and a long, refined finish.
