Tasting - Maipe Malbec 2012

Photo:


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

Shop/wine critic/winery review:
    Deep purple color with violet tints, complex plum, fig, strawberry, spices and floral aromas; rounded and velvety tannins, excellent length with a distinguished character. Excellent when paired with game, roasted red meats, pasta or pizza.


My Review:  
    This wine carries a purpley crimson color and a fruity jam-y nose with notes of strawberry, blackcurrant, and blackberry. This wine is tannic with a nice solid body, and has nice slightly fruity start which transitions into a lasting lightly fruity finish. This wine is quite nice. 81-82/100
