TintoNegro Limestone Block Malbec 2015

Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaNot the best vintage to assess this wine, opening with a slightly reductive, meaty, red fruit nose. The colour is red black, the latter referring to its Tinto Negro moniker. Limestone Block is grown at the 4000-foot mark over limestone outcrops. The attack is a mix of sweet cassis and black fruit with a soft chalky smoky finish. A bit lean and representative of the year, but overall a solid mid-week red for beef or hard cheese.Tasted: 29 May 2018Tasted by: Prices:
