Graffigna 2004 Grand Reserve Malbec (San Juan)

Country: Argentina / Grand Reserve
Variety: Malbec Other
Winery: Graffigna / San Juan

Olive, blackberry and toasty oak all give hope, but when this wine crosses the palate the acidity is so intense that it causes you to take count of your cheeks, tongue and teeth. On one hand, there’s blackberry and cassis flavors to enjoy; on the other, the mouthfeel leaves you roughed up. Imported by Pernod Ricard, USA.
