Don Fincas Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec


Name:Loredona Riesling
Variety:Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec
Year: 2011
Price: $12.95
Country:Argentina

Vintage Cellar Review: 90 points Wine enthusiast.  An excellent wine for the money.  All of Basso's current wines are rock solid, including this blend of Cabernet and Malbec, which shows jammy berry aromas backed by plump blackberry and strawberry flavors.  Solid and flush throughout, with nary a flaw.

My Review: This was not one of my favorites.  I had a hard time getting a good nose from this wine, it was not very fragrant.  The mid palate had hints of berry and the finish was long spicy and peppery with lots of Tannins.  I did not taste this with food.
