Bodega Cuarto Dominio
Chento Malbec
Dark ruby in color with a purplish rim.
A very pronounced, and typical, Argentinian Malbec nose of blackberries, red currants, smoke, vanilla, sweet cherries, licorice, cloves, leather, earth, light green pepper, herbes and peppercorn.
Full-bodied with medium plus acidity and nice legs.
Spicy on the palate, and dry, with blackberries, sweet plums, strawberries, cherries, wood, vanilla, cloves, earth, leather, pencil lead, chocolates, coffee, tobacco, spices, herbs and peppercorn.
Medium plus on the finish with nice tannins and cherries.
A nice, above average, everyday red wine. This Single Vineyard Malbec, from Mendoza, is nicely balanced and not very complex. Very enjoyable by itself, and even better with food. Not as harsh as it was a couple of years ago.
I paired it with barbecue chicken.
13.9% alcohol by volume.
91 points Wine Enthusiasts.

Excellent wine for price point, V.bold, earthy, chocolate notes. A great buy from Costco
