Tasting - Ruta 22 Malbec


Tasting - Ruta 22 Malbec


Name: Ruta 22 Malbec

Variety: Malbec

Region: Patagonia

Country: Argentina

Year: 2011

Price: $7.95

Review: Stout and dense from the beginning, with blackberry and violet aromas. Despite being a bold and dark Malbec, this is fresh and composed, with sweet blackberry and cassis flavors. Good on the finish, with candied fruit and caramel sweetness.

My Review: I could pick up on the taste of blackberries in this wine. I liked that a lot. I did not notice any caramel sweetness on the finishing pallet though. Again this wine was just okay. Nothing about the five wines I tried really impressed me.
