Tasting- Fetzer Malbec

Name: Fetzer Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $15

Winery review: Delicious Malbec is 100% from Mendoza, Argentina. It has a vibrant red color with violet tones. Subtle and delicious aromas with an intense mixture of red fruits, plum and cherry jam. On the palate it’s juicy and has intense wood-like tannins that make it a rustic, yet versatile wine. Long finish. 

My review: The nose had a strong suggestion of ripe plums. The primary pallet had hints of cherry and was light for a red wine. The finish was soft. Overall the wine had a low tannin concentration. If I was going to choose a red wine to drink, this would be the one! I tasted it without food.
