Country: Argentina / Cobos Marchiori Vineyard
Variety: Malbec Mendoza Province
Winery: Viña Cobos / Perdriel
Hot and fiery at first, but then it tames itself while revealing jammy blackberry and roasted plum aromas. Feels extracted and full, with a mix of baked berry, herb and peppery flavors that run deep and delicious. Spicy and chocolaty on the oaky finish, with smooth tannins, sweetness and oaky length. Drink now through 2014.
