Domaine Bousquet Malbec Reserve Organic Wine 2014

Tupungato, Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaMade from organic grapes grown in the Alto Gualtallary in Tupungato. The reserve is an 85/5/5/5/ mix of malbec, cabernet sauvignon, merlot and syrah, aged 10 months in French oak. Expect a ripe, intense, red and black fruit nose. The attack is sweetly ripe, with more black raspberry. a hint of figs and dried sage and thyme. A decent effort in a difficult year and one of the few labels we see certified organic. A fine match for beef tacos, hamburgers, skirt steak or a Bolognese-style pasta dish.Tasted: 11 April 2017Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
