Wine Review: This dark ruby colored Malbec from Zuccardi opens with a funky black cherry bouquet with some hints of saddle leather, blackberry and oak. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic and smooth. The flavor profile is rhubarb and black cherry with notes of graphite. We also detected hints of red plum and black tea. The finish is dry and its dusty tannins and acidity show nice length. The Panel suggested pairing the Malbec with Chinese ribs or a skirt steak. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Color: Red color with violet hues. Aroma: Expresses a great herbal character with notes of fresh red fruits. Flavor: Lively acidity and subtlety of tannins in the mouth.
