monte cinco malbec 2003 8


this is the one they told us won "best malbec" or some such. we got a couple of em and i'm glad we did. Not real luxurious but classic and very solid for sure

This wine has an intense purple color and a complex aromaof mature redfruits, spices,chocolate andvanilla. An extremely long delicious finish completes this excellent example of the Malbec varietal.91 WS
A defined, balanced, artistic rendition of Malbec. Cola and hard spices mix with leather and sweet marshmallow on the bouquet, then it dishes berry pie, coffee and mocha flavors. Plenty of charcoal and chocolate create a sturdy but delectable finish. An excellent Malbec $29
