Country: Argentina / Reserva
Variety: Malbec Mendoza Province
Winery: Tupun / Mendoza
Licorice and char on the nose hint at size and ripeness, but the palate does not deliver. Tart raspberry and red-plum flavors are sweet for a fleeting moment and then decidedly sour, while the finish is bland. Shows a few positives but overall it’s too snappy and sharp for Malbec.
