From Mendoza, the 2020 Malbec Felino was aged for eight months in 10% new oak. Purple in the glass, the nose presents gentle notes of violet alongside intense fruity aromas such as fresh plum and cherry. Growing juicy in the mouth after a dry beginning, the flow is broad with a velvety texture from the aging process and refined tannins before the vivid, fruity finish.

Feb 25th, 2020Got a taste from my favorite bartender. Deep red with dark fruit aromas with usual Malbec. On the palate blackberry fruit with heavy big powerful cedar oak and spice. Big tannins, medium length ending with plenty of spice. Just ok for price.
