Valle Las Acequias Malbec Oak 2013
Mendoza, ArgentinaSourced from 90-year-old vines from the Don Angelino estate in, Medrano, Mendoza, this dense, malbec is threaded with sunbaked red fruits and leather, fine dusty spices and bound by sticky tannins. Though the word 'oak' is on the label, and this indeed spent ten months in wood, it's barely noticeable in this wine, lending some much needed boning to the velveteen, ripe and concentrated palate.Tasted: 08 August 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $23.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
