RESERVA MALBEC 2019 Mendoza |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
FABRE MONTMAYOU |
Santa came early this year with this fresh new 2019. It has an extremely deep intense dark purple colour. The nose explodes with fresh ripe fruit - it’s attractive, slightly spicy, juicy, plum, black cherry and cassis with some sandalwood-cedar notes. Dry, medium bodied, well structured, intense, ripe plum-cherry-blueberry flavours with a lingering, harmonious, gently cedary, fairly high acid, fresh finish. Versatile, ready-to-drink and excellent value. This reliable 100% Malbec sees 60% aged in French oak for 12 months. It has 14.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number L19421 on the back label. The recommended best buy 2018 (**+) was released on April 3, 2021 at $18.95. |

TASTING NOTE: Blackcurrant, plum, pine, tar and licorice aromas. It's medium- to full-bodied with sleek tannins and fresh acidity. Concentrated with a juicy, spiced finish. Drinkable now, but better in a year or two. Score - 92 (jamessuckling.com, April 19, 2021) |
