There is just one thing I look for to determine if a Malbec is worthy of our shelves or not: floral flavours! I found them in this wine, a whiff of violet and rose petal right at the begining of the nose. It is this floral note that I find really elevates a wine in drinkability. Red fruit follows that opening, with raspberry both fresh and stewed, and some baked red plum. On the mid-palate the flavour shifts towards clove, vanilla, tobacco, and a little licorice on the finish, Ultimately this is a lighter style Malbec, with its usual crowd pleasing nature. This would be a nice wine to share with good company and a roast chicken or pot pie.
