Country: Argentina / Patriota
Variety: Malbec-Bonarda Mendoza Province
Winery: Tikal / Uco Valley
Heavy oak, like the kind you get in a sawmill, is the opening on this Malbec-Bonarda blend, and that’s supported by grapy aromas. Saturated, rough and bulky on the palate, this features massively spiced, lavishly oaked berry flavors that lead to a banging finish with scraping tannins.
