Wine Details
Price:
$20.00 per bottle
Description:
We’re seeing more and more Malbec on the shelves in fine wine shops – mostly from Argentina, where they have 40,466 acres planted. In Bordeaux in southwestern France where it originated, Malbec is a traditional blending grape. Regretably, there are only 970 bearing Malbec acres (compared to 71,536 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon) out of a total of 440,296 acres of vineyard in California. We're certainly happy that we have some!
As usual, a mouthful of yummy fruit favors star here, featuring plum, blueberry and currant. Notes of violet pastille and candied fruits on the nose. Full bodied, with a texture so thick it should be put on a diet. But a cranberry tang and dusty tannins give it a friendly finish.
