Interesting #lateharvest #malbec from #susanabalbo Lacked complexity. Almost like sweet grape juice but with more body. #mendoza #argentina #ctbucklinwine

2016 Susana Balbo Late Harvest Malbec: Great aromas, color & taste! Nose: clove, cinnamon & tobacco. Palate: Ripe red fruits. Dark chocolate. Anise. Long persistent finish. All in all, an awesome lip-smacking good wine! Cheers🍷

Fantastic! Rich and opulent dark red fruits, chocolate and warm spice. A delicious, lighter option to port. Perfect with dark chocolate.

A friend paired this with Coconut ice cream and it was sublime! Would be great paired with many desserts (berry cobblers, chocolate cake, etc) as it it sweet, but not sickeningly sweet. Favorite dessert wine pairing as of yet!

Much sweeter than traditional Malbec but excellent with blueberry compost for dessert. Still had same nose as regular Malbec
