Tasting - Marc Roman Malbec

Name: Marc Roman Malbec
Variety: 100% Malbec
Region: Languedoc Roussillon
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $10.95

Winery Review: A heat loving varietal, Malbec thrives in the warm sunshine of Southern France where consistent weather and patience allow tannins to ripen fully. It's this warm climate that allows Marc Roman to make a rich and velvety Malbec, packed with black spice notes and dark berry fruit.

My Review: This wine had a very woody and smoky aroma. There were nice fruity flavors after tasting with a light tannic finish. However, though the different components were not overpowering, the wine seemed a bit thin for a red which took away from its fullness.

I did not have this wine with food.
