Alcohol/Volume: 14%

REVIEW: This elegant ruby coloured Malbec has a beautiful nose with juicy plum and vanilla aromas along with violet, leather, oak, cloves, black pepper and herbal notes.

Luscious tart plum flavours come through on the palate and ends with cloves, cinnamon, and cedar notes. It is moderately full bodied with tannins that are present but smooth and a nice long finish. I thoroughly enjoyed this wine. Great value!

Tasted January 2019
