Malbec is a classic red Bordeaux blending variety that is gaining fame as a varietal in Argentina, France's Loire Valley and California. One sip of this dark-hued beauty and you will no doubt become a fan. The wine's plush, plummy black fruit aromas, with undertones of earth, spearmint and brown sugar, introduce an unctuous palate oozing with decadent plum compote, blackberry and black cherry flavors, which are seamlessly interwoven with round, supple tannins. Enjoy this rare and extremely delicious wine over the next 6-8 years with grilled steak, prime rib, lamb shanks and barbecued ribs.
