The Show Malbec 2011
Mendoza, ArgentinaCharles Bieler, Roger Scommegna and Joel Gott are the 3 Thieves Wine Company and The Show Malbec is a blend of high-altitude fruit from Lujan de Cuyo and the Uco Valley. The '09 is a touch better than last year with ripe sweet fruit, all aged in soft sweet American oak. The style is warm and ripe with black fruit and vanilla undercurrents. There is a bit of a savoury element that saves this red from being too sweet. Serve this with grilled ribs or steaks to best effect.Tasted: 23 December 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $19.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
