Wine Review: If you are looking for a reasonably priced Good Malbec, look no further. This bright ruby colored wine opens with a spicy cherry like bouquet with a hint of cinnamon. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, soft, and very easy to drink. It offers pleasant light black cherry flavors. The finish is dry and its tingly tannins linger for quite some time. We felt this wine would be a nice glass pour option at an Italian restaurant. Enjoy it with spaghetti and meatballs. Ken

Winemaker Notes: Dark red/purple color. Very perfumed with aromas of ripe black cherries and some sweet oak. Full, fleshy, and jammy in the mouth with loads of ripe and spicy red and black fruits. Great structure with loads of ripe, fleshy tannins, and a long, long finish.
