winemaker's notes:
"Saturated and extracted, with an incredibly deep purple tint paving the way for manly aromas of espresso, campfire and toasted coconut. The palate, meanwhile, runs a bit sweet, with boysenberry and plum. Soft on the back end, but with enough spine to see it through. For fans of bold reds."
-Wine Enthusiast
Aromas of tea, leather and blackberry explode from this dense and smokey malbec. It possesses the concentration and textrue of a baby bordeaux with fruit, beefy tannins and full flavor on the mid palette.
Food Pairing
The perfect food wine to accompany smoked meats, hearty tomato-based Italian dishes or other full-flavored cuisine.

Had my first taste of Alamos Malbec (2002) while on a visit to Buenos Aires. Excellent robust flavor with a fruity aftertaste. You can't beat it for the price.

I first started drinking wines from South America when I met my husband 10 years ago. I was a bit worried since I am a very picky wine drinker. I only drink bold red wines and no other (which is a habbit my husband is trying to break me of) In my travels I have found Australian wine to be one of my favorite but I was quite shocked that now I love South American wine just as well. This wine was bold yet not too passive with it's taste. It had a bite so I recommend it with only a strong dish by its side. Something full of spice would be great. I thought the first glass was not that satisfying but after letting it breathe for about 15 minutes I am glad I became a fan. The aromas where wonderfully fruity but the taste made a strong statement. I did not find it tasting too much of berries which I enjoyed.
