Wine Spectator
This has depth, polish and range, with dark plum, fig and boysenberry fruit flavors laced with graphite, violet and tar notes. Dense but well-defined, with superb drive on the finish.Wine Spectator
Ripe and vivid, with delicious boysenberry, fig, pastis and raspberry ganache notes carried by a long, graphite-filled finish. Fruit-driven, but racy and long, with impressive precision to the ample fruit. Great mouthfeel.Additional Information
| Varietal : |
MalbecThough Malbec is now widely known as a varietal wine made in Argentina, it is actually a French red-wine grape traditionally blended with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and others to produce Bordeaux wines. Ripe plum and blackberry define the nose. Tight tannins and an earthy, woody quality make Malbecs a great match for red meat. |

ArgentinaWine lovers came to know Argentinean wines through an almost-forgotten grape from France: Malbec. In Mendoza, the center of Argentina's wine industry, sunny days, an arid climate and mountainous terrain create ideal growing conditions for Malbec to thrive. In addition to Malbec, Chardonnay and other noble grape varieties that flourish in Argentina, a little-known white grape called Torrontès is gaining favor. Look for wines from producers like Bodegas Renacer, Don Miguel Gascon and Navarro Correas. |
