Winemaker's Selection Reserva Malbec

Not much on the nose. Thin with some flavors of tapenade. Missing a lot of the Malbec character.

Needed some air to open up, but cherry and plum notes emerged with some black pepper. Palate was much the same with good acidity and soft tannins.

Would have honestly liked a little more structure, but a good and tasty wine nonetheless.

A Malbec for people who don't care for Malbec! I found this more balanced than usual, with a little earthy terroir but not so much that it overwhelms. Perfect with a beef stew.

Some pepper flavor, some moderately dry tannins. Some slightly more forward initial fruitiness which I love. But an overall short and slightly weak flavor makes this A very okay Malbec for me. But pretty drinkable. And I got it for $6 so I’m cool!

Great Malbec! Nice nose, dry but bold and lots of depth, actually held up for several days after opening the bottle

What do I know about Malbecs? I haven’t been to my friends wine night in over a year and I’ve been drinking cabs and sauvi, and maybe this and that, but not much Malbec. Buttery, not intense, sweet notes, back of the mouth apples, some apricot scent. This one is great, seems balanced I could drink it until it’s gone.

meh. toasty and medium tannins but minimal forest berries on the front end to balance out the mineral notes or add any complexity. It felt very one note and there was not much on the nose. It was fine bur I expected better. medium tannins low acid
