Neuquén Malbec
Neuquén, Patagonia, Argentina
A journey of through a light crisp fruity oasis that is easy to drink. Slowly transitioning into a slight dry taste that's reminiscent of a Malbec but not too spicy to turn you off from coming back. Combined with chocolate and/or caramel counteracts the dryness after-taste that would typically linger on your tongue. A must try! ~$15

Dark inky in color with a purplish rim.
Fruity on the nose with chocolates, vanilla, blackberries, menthol, plums, cherries, strawberries, licorice, cedar, metals and black pepper.
Full bodied with medium acidity and great legs.
Dry on the palate with blueberries, plums, cherries, cranberries, oak, vanilla, tobacco, dark chocolates, coffee, licorice, cola and light peppercorn.
Long finish with full, smooth, round tannins and a short bitter ending.
This is a Great Malbec. At its peak now. Smooth and elegant and very enjoyable.

Great overall complexity - a bit fruit forward. Definitely better at cellar temperature.
