Tasting- Entrada Malbec



Name: Entrada Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Country: Chile
Region: N/A
Year: 2012
Price: $5.95

Wine Shop Review: Firm and structured, this is a solid wine, laced with mineral acidity and tight tannins. It has a juicy, blackberry fruit component cutting through the texture.
My Review: I immediately smelled this wine and thought that something was off balance. Though the % of alcohol was only 13% it seemed much higher. It also had a very mineral and tight nose, not wanting to give much up. I definitely thought that it had high acid for red wine which was refreshing, with low tannin levels. I got slight hints of blueberry and nice fruit flavors that resembled blackberries. Just an average wine.

I did not taste this wine with food.
