Ultra Mendoza Malbec
Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
Gave this guy about 3 hours to breath from the bottle before I tried it. Loads of crushed violet on the nose. The pallet was lush and full of ripe plum notes. The acidity was quite low with a hint of tannin on the finish. A good wine for just sitting at the computer all day. A great red for under $20CAD.

2012 Vintage. Deep inky purple with aromas of mocha and plum. Elegant and plush on the palate with lots of crunchy fruit and rich texture. A great bargain

Needs to breathe for a few hours before it really hits its stride.
