Masi Tupungato 2009 Passo Doble Malbec-Corvina Red (Uco Valley)

Country: Argentina / Passo Doble Malbec-Corvina
Variety: Red Blend Mendoza Province
Winery: Masi Tupungato / Uco Valley

Roasted at first, with smoked ham and bacon aromas along with clove and other hard spice notes. The palate is oaky, with chewy tannins and a thick texture; flavors of blackberry are meaty and rich, while clove and more dry spices reappear on the finish. A different breed for Mendoza.
