Tasting - Fetzer Malbec 2011

Name: Fetzer Malbec 2011
Variety: 100% Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: Delicious Malbec is 100% from Mendoza, Argentina. It has a vibrant red color with violet tones. Subtle and delicious aromas with an intense mixture of red fruits, plum and cherry jam. On the palate it's juicy and has intense wood-like tannins that make it a rustic, yet versatile wine. Long finish.

My Review: This wine seemed lighter than the Garnacha. The tannins were present but not overpowering. I did not get a wood taste but I did get some of the fruit flavors coming through. Not my favorite but a better red wine than others.

I did not have this wine with food.
