I loved the dusty and earthy overtones with hints of cherries and some dark fruits. Well integrated tannins and excellent acidity. #malbecworldday

2011 vintage

Intense concentrated red fruit. Smoky, fine-grained tannins, waxy and a little cloying. Medium-heavy mouth feel and medium length. This producer is capable of producing high quality wine for the price. This one is a crowd pleaser, but lacks restraint and finesse that would showcase this fruit so much better.

Let’s qualify this statement by saying that I’m not a wine connoisseur. That said, I really enjoyed this wine. Not overly sweet and smooth..

Generally weak in flavor. Not worth the price.

Weeknight home dinner wine that mellows out and softens over 2-3 days Malbec which transforms itself to a Merlot. Paired with Coca Cola Ketchup chicken, steamed tofu with ginger scallions and fried garlic, and fried Indonesian prawn chips
