Tasting- Ruta 22 Malbec

Name: Ruta 22 Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Patagonia
Country: Argentina
Year: NV
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: Stout and dense from the beginning, with blackberry and violet aromas. Despite being a bold and dark Malbec, this is fresh and composed, with sweet blackberry and cassis flavors. Good on the finish, with candied fruit and caramel sweetness.

My Review: This Malbec has a dark ruby color, with violet mixed in. On the nose I noticed some cherry and strawberry, a pleasant bouquet. On the palate this wine starts with sweet fruity notes, has light spice on the mid-palate, and finishes dry.
