Tasting - Maipe Malbec Rose


Name: Maipe Malbec Rose
Variety: 100% Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95

Vintage Cellar ReviewIntense pink color with violet hints. Fresh red fruit bouquet, strawberry and cherry flavors, balanced acidity, dry and lingering finish. Excellent with tuna or green salad, pasta, spicy Asian dishes. 

My Review: Very close color to red wines. Had a nice fruit and flowery nose like strawberries and rose petals mixed together. I liked the fruit characteristics, there was a nice spice that jumped around on the tongue. Drier than most roses, but good!

I tasted this wine without food.
