Trapiche 2009 Oak Cask Malbec (Mendoza)

Country: Argentina / Oak Cask
Variety: Malbec Mendoza Province

Black and charred at first, with licorice, asphalt and a touch of bacon on the bouquet. The palate is soft, soupy and round, with ripe, saturated berry and fig flavors. Finishes spicy and full, with chewy tannins and ample extract.
