Decero Remolinos Vineyard-Agrelo Malbec 2011

95
Decero Remolinos Vineyard-Agrelo
Varietal: Malbec
Vintage: 2011
Country of Origin: Argentina
Appellation: Agrelo
Retail Price: $23

Tasting Notes: The vineyard is located at 3,500 feet in Mendoza’s sub-region of Agrelo where the grapes are hand picked. The wine, aged in French oak barrels for 14 months, is a superb example of modern Argentine winemaking. A floral nose leads to concentrated flavors of sweet/tart red fruits with nuances of cedar, spice, and vanilla. The tannins are firm and linger with some lip-smacking acidity. Pair this with a good steak!
