Tasting - Potluck Sweet Malbec

Name: Potluck Sweet Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2010
Price: $7.95

Vintage Cellar ReviewDeep red brilliant with violet hints. Complex, fruity, and predominant red fruits. Easy to drink, round with persistent sweetness, very well balanced with sweet tannins.

My Review: Nice and fruity, cherry and strawberry in the nose. Smelled like candy - reminded me of twizzlers, one of my favorite candies. I could taste the tannins, which was odd for a lightly sweet wine. Had a tad bit of spice in the taste with a nice red berry flavor. I think I would like this wine with food better, since it isn't too sweet but sweeter than most.

I tasted this wine on its own without food.
