winemaker's notes:

Malbec is the signature wine of the Mendoza region and represents the highest achievements of Argentine winemaking. The Alamos Malbec has dark, blackish purple color. The nose shows ripe black fruits, black pepper spice and floral notes. The mouthfeel is full yet soft and supple, with black raspberry and currant flavors mingled with notes of sweet spice and a touch of leather. The finish is long and persistent with soft, sweet tannins.

alcohol by volume: 13.8%

critical acclaim:

"Rubbery at first, then it rounds out and settles down to offer blackberry and richness and jammy aromas. The palate is soft, lush and cushioned, while blackberry flavors run sweet, toasty, and chocolaty. Remains sweet on the finish, with fig and minty spice flavors."

rating (7/7/2011):

this is an outstanding value for my table wine which I keep by the case for everyday use. Smooth, supple, with a strong bouquet when first opened, I prefer to let it breathe for 30 minutes before drinking. A great value for a decent wine!
