2011 Alamos Malbec

Nicely done!
As our South American imports continue to sell out faster than we can ship them, we've had our radar out for viable alternatives. This is one. Opaque black crimson colour with deep dark crimson red dark purple hue. Good perfumed lift with scents of dark cherries intermixed with some violets, liquorice, earthy cedar and spice. Medium to full bodied the palate possesses generous ripe dark cherry and blackberry flavours supported by some liquorice, earthy cedar and spice. Dry slightly firmish but very well balanced tannins. Medium to long ripe dark cherry, earthy cedar, liquorice and spice aftertaste.
Cellar 4-5 years (2016-2017).
Alc 13.5%
