Tonel 78 Barrel Select Malbec - Bonarda Barrel Select 2015
Mendoza, ArgentinaThe Tonel 78 Barrel Select is a 50/50 mix of malbec and bonarda, the latter giving it an attractive, juicy, character in the mouth. The two varieties are fermented separately before they are blended and aged in oak for 12 months. The nose is a mix of plums and licorice the palate almost identical with soft, floral, fruity textures that finish dry. A solid ready-to-drink red you can serve with grilled meats.Tasted: 09 October 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $24.69 | 750ml | private wine shops |
