Country: Argentina / Golden Reserve
Variety: Malbec Mendoza Province
Winery: Trivento / Luján de Cuyo
Opens with a blast of milk chocolate, raisin and sawdust before settling on black fruit and pepper. Shows good concentration and feel in front of prune, blackberry, licorice and burnt toast flavors. Has good pulse and vibrancy, but it’s a bit choppy and oaky.
