INICIO MALBEC 2014 Mendoza
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer AGOSTINO
Deep intense purple colour. Spicy, baked plum nose with some clove-cedar-sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, slightly spicy, baked plum-cherry flavours with a high acid, tangy, cedar-clove finish. Intense, apple-melon personally not keen on the clove tonality. Has 13% alcohol and 8 g/L residual sugar. Try with bbq ribs. CSPC 330670
