Benegas Malbec 2009

MaipĂș, Northern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaBig tobacco, savoury, herbal, roasted mushroom, peppery, barnyard, meaty, vanilla aromas. Dry, full, round, somewhat smooth but some gritty tannin. The attack is a mix of sweet vanilla and plum jam with peppery, savoury, tobacco, rooty, meaty, pruney notes. The finish is somewhat warm and alcoholic with a strong coffee/ vanilla undercurrent. Overall a bit muddled.Tasted: 15 February 2012Tasted by: Prices:
