Portillo Malbec 2018

Bright pale pink color. Fruity with notes of red fruits and strawberry candy. Fresh and round, with a short finish and easy to drink. Malbec typically expresses deep flavors of blackberry, plum and licorice, appropriately backed by aromas of freshly turned earth and dense, chewy tannins.

In warmer, New World regions, such as Mendoza, Malbec will be intensely ripe, and full of fruit and spice. From its homeland in Cahors, its rusticity shines; dusty notes and a beguiling bouquet of violets balance rich, black fruit.
