Trivento Golden Reserve Malbec 2005
Mendoza, ArgentinaComplex orange peel, ash, tobacco, smoky, liquorice, coffee, vanilla, curry, cedar, menthol and saddle leather aromas. Rich, ripe, full and concentrated with some grainy tannins to shed. Black cherry, vanilla, coffee, savoury, five spice, peppery, liquorice and resin flavours. A bit fat and warm but with fine concentration and balance, needs 2-3 years to soften a bit more. Good value here. A gold medal winner at the 2009 Argentine Wine Awards.Tasted: 26 June 2009Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $26.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Select Wine Merchants |
