Tasting-Ruta 22 Malbec


Name: Ruta 22 Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Patagonia
Country: Argentina
Year: NV
Price: $7.95
Shop review: Stout and dense from the beginning, with blackberry and violet aromas. Despite being a bold and dark Malbec, this is fresh and composed, with sweet blackberry and cassis flavors. Good on the finish, with candied fruit and caramel sweetness.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg VA)

My review: This wine had a rich ruby red color, and a smell that was full of jam and berry.  It had a muted taste with slight hints of twig and root.  Overall, this was not a bad wine.

I drank this without food.
