Santa Julia Malbec

Name: Santa Julia Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $8.95

Winemaker Review: The nose is full of mellow raspberry and cherry, while the palate is fleshy and round, with blackberry and a touch of raisin. Plump, not edgy, and ready to drink, with a coffee and mocha notes on the finish.

My Review: The nose of the red wine was interesting, with light, fruity hints that I don't normally associate with Malbecs. The taste was similar, but the fruit was much stronger than I anticipated with hints of blackberry. Medium bodied and good finish.

Food: No
