Kirkland Signature
Mendoza Malbec
Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
This Malbec starts with aromas blueberry and baking spices. A tad harsh with reduction fault upon opening, it's worth noting that this wine actually greatly benefited from 30+ mins of decanting. After this it exhibited mild tannins, rich black fruit and a bit of vanilla on the off-dry pallate. Paired with, what else, some Game of Thrones. Overall, enjoyable and affordable! ($7) [6/6/16]
