Luscious steeped blackberries, marionberries, and dusky Italian plums lie well beneath lighter, more enigmatic aromas of violets, dust, and dark chocolate shavings. Seed's 2014 Paraje Altamira Malbec is mulberry-hued at the rim and deliciously fresh. The nose echoes the palate, with saturating black fruit at the core, neatly hemmed in by mouth-coating, ripe tannins. It's a subtle, elegant Malbec—one that gently wends its way to a slightly spicy, herbaceous close of green peppercorn, dried rosemary, bay leaf.
