Boxed Malbec from Argentina is a crowded category, but Bota Box's Nighthawk line is deliberately richer and darker than their standard tier — a bolder cut of the grape. Delicato Fa mily Wines, a fourth-generation California producer founded in 1924, sources this Malbec from Mendoza's high-altitude, dry continental foothills of the Andes, where intense UV exposure and warm days with cool nights concentrate fruit. The wine is traditionally made and briefly oak-aged, then sealed in a BPA-free bag-in-box that produces 96% less landfill waste than glass and keeps wine fresh for up to 30 days after opening. Expect jammy blueberry and ripe blackberry up front, with a soft palate and a close of blueberry pie, cedar, and spice. Show more
