Mendel Malbec,
Mendoza 2008

Double Achiever

This is what I call serious malbec with mature elegant finish.  The average age of the vines is 81yrs, which means you get incredibly mature fruit that combines the seriousness and grip that malbec can offer from an Old World style with the smooth finish that is truely a Taste of Argentina.

All french oak for 12 months gives just the right amount of toasty, leathery flavors that hold the playfulness of malbec back, and offer a beautiful rich easy cocoa finish that is almost mocha.  I love this one!!
$33-$35
