Vivacious Vino - Review of Santa Julia Malbec Sustainable

Name: Santa Julia Malbec Sustainable
Variety: 100% Malbec
Region: ??
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $8.95
Alcohol Content: ??
With/Without Food: No food
Wine Review The nose is full of mellow raspberry and cherry, while the palate is fleshy and round, with blackberry and a touch of raisin. Plump, not edgy, and ready to drink, with coffee and mocha notes on the finish


My Review: This wine was not what I expected it to be after seeing the color. Coffee and chocolate covered cherries and strawberries came through on the nose. It wasn’t as acidic as I thought it would be which was nice! I can see where they got the blackberry and raisin flavors, but when I had my first sip those didn’t jump out right away. Overall, a nice red.
