Alta vista malbec 2007

Very nice deep colour and strong finish. The cork was dry and brittle despite being stored on it's side for almost 8 years. The wine looks garnet coloured. The legs are slow. There is moderate sediment in the bottle. It smells like petrol, forest floor and toast.

The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes long. Do you find this review helpful? A lot going on with this wine. Odd palate of oranges and rubber but interesting. Giggs noted graphite. Overall very enjoyable. Tammy's birthday Jordyn's home, Lexington, KY : Spicy, toasted wood, mocha, wild black raspberry nose. Loamy palate leads with black currants, continuing to a juicy, ripe raspberry midpalate.

Drinking well at the moment. Rich, toasty nose, heavily oaked, but balanced beautifully against sweet florals and dark currant and raspberry. Palate is similarly concentrated, juicy, very spicy, lots of loam, raspberry, black fruits. Also, alert me about new products from this winery. Ships Thu, Jan Limit 0 per customer.

Winemaker Notes The wine has ripe, red fruit aromas and spicy notes, with round, soft tannins and a lively mouthfeel. This wine pairs well with grilled pork tenderloin, lamb and veal with fresh herbs. Critical Acclaim All Vintages.
