Doña Paula Los Cardos Malbec 2006
Ugarteche District, Luján de Cuyo, Northern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaTypically peppery with sweet mocha/chocolate, leather, and black fruit aromas and flavours. On the palate it comes up drier and firmer than you might expect with more smoky leather, chocolate cherry, roasted mushroom notes and the customary savoury thread. Should be just fine with most grilled meats and/or poultry.Tasted: 14 June 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $13.85 | 750ml | specialty listing |
