Ruca Malen Kinien Malbec 2009
Mendoza, ArgentinaDeep black cherry colour. Plum, black cherry, peppery, savoury, tobacco, floral, spicy, barnyard, leather and vanilla aromas with a touch of jarilla resin. Ripe, round, dry, suave and warm palate with smooth, grainy tannins. Delicious vanilla, coffee, black cherry, plum, orange peel, chocolate flavours flecked with pepper and poultry spice flavours. Big concentration and structure with lots of fruit but a bit hot on the finish. Perhaps a bit less oak would be preferred but very solid effort.Tasted: 15 February 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| SK | $35.00 | 750ml | |
