Classic BBQ wine, this entry level Malbec from Catena (£13) has cherry and black currant notes with a slight savoury edge. While quite a bold wine, the alcohol is well integrated and perfect to drink now.

On 12/24/17 with Christmas Eve dinner with Tonya, grandma Chris and Bernie and aggie. A medium bodies fruit forward crisp balanced wine, easy to drink.

Nice accompaniment to beef stew with carrots, smashed potatoes, a side of caramelized onions and a creamed horseradish.

Blackberry, mocha and tomato flavors. You may think it's an odd combination. It is. But it works. The finish is tangy, but silky.

Never fails at immediate drinkability and fruitiness. Spicy on the tongue, smooth in the back. Good on its own or with cheese, lightly flavored pasta.

Dusty and bold, but not too bold. Subtle hints of spice with a bit of cherry. Very good Malbec.
