Producer

Founded by Alejandro Bianchi (3rd generation winemaker from Bodegas Bianchi), Finca Dinamia is a pioneer in Mendoza for organic and biodynamic wines. Their whole ethos revolves around care for the planet and ensuring that they focus on the responsible way of producing sustainable, high-quality wines. They became the first Biodynamic vineyard in Mendoza in the year 2009, certified by DEMETER. Within their main vineyard they also run La Encantada, an eco resort with organic farm, and they have recently built a small organic chocolate factory.
Tasting Notes
Finca Dinamia`s commitment to sustainability can be seen not only in how they make their wines but also in their presentation; this biodynamic Malbec uses ecological packaging with a painted bottle, natural cork and recycled cardoard boxes. Deep ruby in colour with a rustic nose of brambles, dried herbs and cloves, the palate is full bodied with concentrated black fruits, mocha, black olives and a slight spicy pepper note on the finish. The production of this wine uses a `hands off` approach, the fermentation starts naturally with wild yeasts and a gentle partial oak ageing imparts spice and complexity.
Food
Serve with BBQ meats such as steak, sausages or burgers, pasta, pizza and stews.
