Deep rich, eggplant hue with aromas of "thick" ripe blackberry fruit, maybe a hint of blueberry, pie crust, spices, and more.
Palate--Finessed first impression with silky tannins, bold dark berry fruit flavors, spice, rich rear palate with a lingering finish of more blackberry fruit.
This previously reviewed wine just a couple months ago is a very nice expression of the Malbec grape, the signature grape of Argentina. A "Single Vineyard" wine is generally significantly higher in price because of limited production and consistency of quality and care over a particular parcel of grapes. To think of finding a single vineyard wine of any strip for around the $10 price point is foolhardy and yet here it is.
Another Trader Joe's super value wine is worth buying in a case lot as it will only get better for the next 5-7 years so raise a glass! I am pairing it with BBQ'd chicken thighs and it will be perfect!
