Alpasión 2012 Private Selection Malbec-Cabernet Franc (Mendoza)

Country: Argentina / Private Selection
Variety: Malbec-Cabernet Franc Mendoza Province
Winery: Alpasión / Mendoza

Grainy woody aromas of vanilla and pencil lead control the nose of this saturated blend of Malbec and Cab Franc. At a whopping 15.8% abv, one shouldn’t be shocked by syrupy weight and head-to-toe sweetness. Additional flavors of maple, char and baked black fruits finish heavy, with notes of burnt toast and black licorice. Drink through 2021.
