Wine Review: This medium purple colored Malbec opens with a blueberry and gentle oak bouquet with hints of flint stone and red plum. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced and juicy. The flavor profile is ripe black plum and dried herb blend with notes of minerality. We also detected some hints of green tea and black cherry mixed in. The finish is dry and its flavors and tannins fade away nicely. The Panel would pair this Malbec with a char grilled leg of lamb or burnt ends. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: The robe is deep red with hints of violet. The nose reveals aromas of plum and red fruit. The palate is fresh and elegant, with remarkable balance between tannins, acidity and alcohol. Long, delicate finish. Overall, a very convivial, attractive wine.
