Evangelos Bagias Lodi Malbec 2019
About the wine
Mighty single-vineyard Malbec steeped in rich, robust fruity decadence
- This deep, brooding red from Evangelos is spilling over with sultry, show-stealing flavors of raspberry, black cherry and even a hint of rich mocha gliding together into a seriously smooth, long-lasting finish.
- With Angels on his side, and a mental treasure map of the very best Lodi vineyards for otherworldly Malbec, it’s no wonder Evangelos captivates thousands of Angels with every vintage of this robust red.
- Evangelos suggests pairing a glass of 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!
Best before
You can enjoy this wine now or age it for 3-5 years.

Food match
Chicken cacciatore, home-made greek eggplant moussaka. Also great with aged manchego cheese or a blue cheese burger.
