Cicchitti 2013 Vino Tinto Red (Mendoza)

Country: Argentina / Vino Tinto
Variety: Red Blend Mendoza Province
Winery: Cicchitti / Mendoza

Gritty aromas of asphalt, herbs, tomato and plum make for a tough opening. This is syrupy and grabby on the palate, with creamy berry and cooked brown-sugar flavors. A sinewy finish tastes medicinal and a touch weedy.
