Community Tasting Note

    December 27, 2013 - Malbec from the Languedoc. A nice change from higher alcohol, ripe, fruit forward Malbec common these days.
    Night harvested, 4 day cold soak, aged 4 months in barrel. 13% alc.

    Purple, plum red color, not as dark or extracted as some of the inky purple Malbec commonly seen.
    Notes of currant, violets, spice, and a hint of vanilla on the nose.
    Enjoyable red and black fruits on the palate, not overpowering, with good structure also not dominating, balanced.
    Easy drinking.

    A good value for the price, and every day drinking wine.
