Tasting-Maipe Malbec Rosé


Name: Maipe Malbec Rosé
Variety: 100% Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95
Shop review: “Intense pink color with violet hints. Fresh red bouquet, strawberry and cherry flavors, balanced acidity, dry and lingering finish. Excellent with tuna or green salad, pasta, spicy Asian dishes.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg VA)

My review: The color of this wine was bittersweet.  It had a sour smell resembling lemons.  This wine was slightly effervescent, but was very light (like a white wine).  It was cool (and served chilled), smooth, and almost creamy.

I drank this without food.
