Alamos Red Blend 2020

 


Purple hue with bounding aromas of ripe red berry fruit and a touch of sweet spice with a note of savory with the subtle lift of stewed tomatoes.

Palate--Fruit forward with loads of berries, and an immature structure giving an angular first impression. More berries come through after the swallow and a lingering pleasure of yet more red fruit.

Alamos is one of the successful Argentinian vintners who seem to have mastered the popular profile whatever wines they make.  The signature grape of Malbec is always done well, and they have made strides in Cabernet Sauvignon as well.  This wine is majority Malbec.  At $8, it's tasty and goes well with my grilled steak tonight so raise a glass!
