Didn't much care one way or another about this malbec. It certainly wasn't bad, but nothing to get all giddy about

On this week's episode of wines I've never seen... Apparently everyone bought this at Costco but I got it at my corner shop. It's pretty solid, checks all the malbec boxes. Doesn't stain my teeth.
Listening to Shania Twain with Josh Homme. What a match made in purgatory.

Solid juicy Malbec. Plenty of dark fruit, particularly blackberry. Structured, lovely with a grilled steak.

Deep purple in color; black cherries, red plums, and graphite on the nose; medium acidity; medium tannins; tastes like blackberries, licorice, and clay pots with a long finish. Nellie likes it and I do too.
