TASTING NOTE: Viņa Cobos Felino Malbec from Paul Hobbs is a remarkable introduction to the wines of Mendoza. As well as this Malbec, Hobbs produces a Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay under the Felino label. It is juicy with plenty of fresh fruit, dark chocolate, cola, plum and vanilla tones, and a smooth and inviting texture. A great choice for grilled meats. (VINTAGES panel, Oct. 2016) Price $ 19.95
