Evangelos Bagias Lodi Malbec 2020
About the wine
Single-vineyard Malbec steeped in rich, fruity decadence

Overflowing with sultry fruit matched with a hint of rich mocha, it’s easy to taste why this deep red is loved deeply by Angels receiving consecutive 90+ ratings.
-
With Angels on his side, and a mental treasure map of the very best Lodi vineyards for Malbec, it’s no wonder Evangelos captivates thousands of Angels with every vintage.
-
Evangelos suggests pairing this mouthwatering Malbec with Greek classics like home-made eggplant moussaka or juicy chicken cacciatore. Give it a little time to breathe after popping the cork out, then you’re good as gold!

Serving advice
Decant before serving, drink at 65-F, this wine is young and benefits from aeration.
