Mi Terruño
Uvas Mendoza Malbec
Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
How was your #MalbecWorldDay?
Mr Spittoon and I had a pretty good night and no sign of wine flu today either, which I’d great 😜
We cracked into this #thetcwineclub bottle of Mi Terruno ‘Uvas’ 2017 Malbec from the Mendoza region in Argentina 🇦🇷. To match we cooked up some beautiful smoky peppery steaks and had homemade steak 🥩 sandwich’s. So good!!
If you’re not aware, Malbec is Argentina’s flagship grape. However you can find it grown around the world, including in
Aussie where there are some delicious ones being produced around the country. I was actually kicking myself that I didn’t pick up some blue cheese to go on our sandwiches as Malbec is a great match for that stinky blue 🧀
In the glass it’s a luscious garnet colour. Notes of berries, moss, black olive and cocoa rise from the glass for me while in the mouth it’s got incredibly smooth tannins, juicy plum flavours and I was even finishing my glass before Mr Spittoon!
I am a notoriously slow drinker by the way 🤣
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy!

Easy drinking, fruity, light body with spicy finish. A table wine for any occasion

Price is good under $10 but didn't like the taste that much.

Very nice everyday wine; had it with veal chop/bratwurst spaghetti. Dry with a kick of fruit

Super good. I ate vegetarian tonight. My hubby had red meat. Went well with both.
