Wine of the Week

1 November 2004

2002 Malbec, Faldeos Nevados, Mendoza, Argentina
£5.95, Wine Society

Argentina is only slowly realizing its potential, and many of its signature Malbec reds are made in an 'international' style. But this one isn't, even though it has a bit more toasty oak flavour than I'd like. The violet scent sings out in the glass, and the damson fruit is glycerine-soft and sweet.
