Felino by Viña Cobos Malbec 2009

Mendoza, ArgentinaThis wine continues to improve as winemaker Paul Hobbs and Co dial back the cream and oak and up the minerality and terroir. Look for black cherry and poultry spice aromas in was is a supple red with fine acidity. The palate is a savoury mix of plum jam, liquorice and roasted mushroom flavours; the finish warm and fresh and suave and still with some fruit poking through. Fine value and a benchmark at this price range for quality.Tasted: 05 September 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
