Ricardo Santos 2009 El Gran Malbec (Mendoza)

Country: Argentina / El Gran
Variety: Malbec Mendoza Province

Horsey, overripe aromas don’t convey a sense of balance. As the nose indicates, this comes across heavy and syrupy, with blocky tannins. Stewy flavors of blackberry and prune finish with hard tannins.
