Grand Vin
Goulart’s flagship wine is produced from a small vineyard plot originally planted in 1915 by Marshall Gastao Goulart. Now known as the Don Pedro vineyard, this property is located in Lunlunta, which rests at the foothills of the Andes and enjoys a unique microclimate.
Aged in French oak barrels for more than a year, this wine offers complex aromas of black fruit — particularly black currants and plums — with hints of chocolate and spices. Juicy on the palate, this Malbec is bursting with energy and purity of fruit.
Goulart Grand Vin pairs well with hearty, spicy meat dishes, such as Mexican, Indian, or Cajun cuisine.

This comes from a 12-acre vineyard planted in 1915 by Gastao Goulart, a Brazilian military leader, the year he was exiled to Argentina. The bodega is now run by his granddaughter, Erika Goulart, who works with agronomist Mauricio Parodi to sustain the old vines. Their concentrated fruit comes through in this wine’s dense, jammy, caramel-lined flavors, as well as in its steadfast resistance to oxygen. Aged for 14 months in new oak, and many more years in bottle, the wine has developed notes of leather, tobacco and tea, but it still feels vibrant, sustaining its balance for days after opening.
