Valentin Bianchi Malbec Oak Aged 2001

San Rafael, General Alvear, Southern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaSpicy, black cherry, smoky vanilla, leather game cardamom nose. Dry, medium body, with slightly dry, astringent tannins. Good smoky, cedary, licorice, and vanilla flavours with some spicy clove cherry jam flavours in the finish. Will improve over the next year or so but try with roasted game if you like it young.Tasted: 20 October 2003Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:
