Grapes: Malbec
From: Argentina - Mendoza (bordering on Chile)ja
Description:
Big juicy wine with loads of spicy red & black fruit and a pack of bold tannins - yummy.
<><>
Fact:
Malbec is the most important grape in the Mendoza region.
This is right on the border of Chile so will please those who prefer Chilean wine.
This differs from the Cabernet Sauvignon in that it can have a little more Tannin and has a distinctive plum and anise note (cabernet sauvignon is associated with mint & eucalyptus and in some cases green pepper!)
Food Pairing:
This is our boldest and fullest wine by the glass - if guests like a fu;ll-bodied or ask for a cabernet sauvignon this could be the one to offer.
Goes well with juicy red meat
