Tasting - Maipe Malbec

Name:  Maipe Malbec
Variety:  Malbec
Region:  Mendoza
Country:  Argentina
Year:  2011
Price:  $8.95

Winery review:  Deep purple color with violet tints, complex plum, fig, strawberry, spices and floral aromas; rounded and velvety tannins, excellent length with a distinguished character. Excellent when paired with game, roasted red meats, pasta or pizza.

My review: This wine has a very dark fruit smell to it; smells of plum, fig, and even some strawberry. The smells transition to flavors with some added spices on the palate and goes well with the velvet body of this wines body.

Food:  Did not have with food
