Bodega Abito Malbec 2019
This Malbec is sourced from Barrancas, in the sub region of Maipu, Mendoza. It gives a softer structured Malbec that one grown at a higher altitude. Rich ruby color with the signature purple rim, ripe black fruits (blackberry, blueberry, plum), sweet baking spice and very soft oak influences thanks to 8 months of French oak ageing. It’s a medium bodied, softer tannin wine with riper fruit, currants and chocolate, sweet tobacco, cinnamon, cloves and licorice, finishes on a earthy savoriness that is carried by a lively acidity. This is a nice Malbec from Mendoza. Smooth, velvety and easy drinking.
Pair with blue cheese topped sirloin steak or grilled peppers and mushroom burgers with aged cheddar.
