Description
Dark ruby color, the aroma has an impression of ripe blueberry, and blackberry fruit. The integrated oak is spicy; a potpourri of forest floor, cinnamon, clove, aromatic cedar and black pepper. The flavor resembles black cherry fruit with slight licorice and expresso complexity. This Malbec has a good overall balance of fruit, body, resolved tannin and balanced acidity. With the depth of fruit, coupled with the richness of flavor, provides a profile that delivers from the initial sip, one that continues on the palate for a very long finish – enjoy.
