Bodegas Poesia
Reserva Clos des Andes Mendoza Malbec
Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
Very jnteresting Malbec. I would have never pegged it for Argentine malbec but rather right bank Merlot or possibly even northern rhone syrah. Nose is very unique with some old school cellar funk, bacon fat, raspberry, dried sage, and other herbs. Palate is decadent and smooth but not overwhelmingly heavy. Blackberry jam and a whif of powdered cocoa. Really soft texture as it opens up and calms down. Nice bottle with relaxed tannins, definitely doesn't need any more time.

Mar 8th, 2014One of the most balanced wines I’ve ever tasted. Old leather and dried cocoa on the nose. Sweet tobacco, plum, and candy store chewy cherry candies followed by very decadent tannins. Bought two more bottles to hold.

Delightful Malbec. Medium light with berry finish. Definitely worth buying.

Would be good with red meat, fat, simple veggies (French Beef Caserole, steak tips with duck fat brussel sprout s). Wine is rich. Blackberry, choc notes. Smooth tannins. Darker than bright. Oak barrel comes through with earthiness
