Tasting- 2011 Maipe Malbec Rose

Name: Maipe Malbec Rose
Variety: Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: Intense pink color with violet hints. Fresh red fruit bouquet, strawberry and cherry flavors. balanced acidity, dry and lingering finish. Excellent with tuna or green salad, pasta, spicy Asian dishes.

My Review: This wine is a classic rose color, with a hint of golden-brown added in. The nose of this rose shows a nice bouquet of plum, blackberry, and currant. The palate of this wine starts out with a rich honey-like sweetness, has some fruity notes on the mid-palate, and finishes dry.
