Odfjell 2005 Orzada Malbec (Lontué Valley)

Country: Chile / Orzada
Variety: Malbec Lontué Valley
Winery: Odfjell /

One of Chile’s best Malbecs. This vintage is very rich and compact, with blackberry, marzipan and cola aromas. The palate is firm and sturdy, but more like a bench than a plush chair. Superripe and a little clumsy, with really intense cassis and cherry flavors. Fruity almost to the point of being over the top.
