What
a lovely Malbec that has been blessed by the great Texas vintage of 2017 and
sourced from Newsom Vineyards. This
Texas High Plains sourced fruit is big on everything. Clocking in at 15.5% abv, everything is big
and excellent from start to finish. You
will relish those juicy blueberry notes followed by luscious ripe
blackberries. Yes, it does come across
as “hot’ at first, but do not confuse that with the touch of spice flavors this
wine packs. There are some lingering
vanilla notes for an extra added dimension to your sipping experience. This wine has a definite “ahh” finish with
some pepper for the lingering final effect.
A nice big wine to enjoy with food. Cheers!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
