Shop/wine
critic/Winery Review: Stout and dense from the beginning, with blackberry
and violet aromas. Despite being a bold and dark Malbec, this is fresh and
composed, with sweet blackberry and cassis flavors. Good on the finish, with
candied fruit and caramel sweetness.
My Review: This
was the wine of the day that I was looking forward too. A nice Malbec from Argentina. The smell had some nice hints of red cherry
that was enjoyable. The taste was much
sweeter than I was expecting. It was
similar to a candied cherry but not like a maraschino cherry (yuck!). It was slight tannins and the finish was very
light. Overall, it was good but quite a
light drink for a Malbec. Definitely
drink it with chicken or salmon and it would definitely be a hit.
