Tasting | Maipe Malbec


Name: Maipe
Variety: Malbec
Year: 2015
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Price: $6.95

Winery Review: "The 2015 Maipe Malbec is another 100% Malbec, with a deep purple color and a style similar to the Lexicon, with chocolaty, blackcurrant and blackberry fruit, as well as touches of licorice and earth. It is delicious, soft and round."
- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (March 2016), 87 pts - Excellent Wine Values for Under $25

My Review: I did not have this with food. Malbec is my second favorite type of red wine. This was one of the better Malbec bottle I have tried. It tastes like dark chocolate, cherries, and raspberries. It also tastes slightly woody and smoky.
