Santa Julia Malbec


Monday, April 21, 2014


Name: Santa Julia

 

Variety: Malbec (13.5% Alcohol)
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2013
Price: $10


My Review: This wine appears to be medium bodied and is ruby red in color.  This wine does not have a strong aroma, but I do smell dark fruit and a decent amount of oak.  This wine is very sweet; I taste the fruit, but there is a hint of green beans on the mid palate that I am not a fan of.  Other than the green bean flavor, this is a very smooth tasty wine.

Winery Review: This purple-red wine is packed with ripe fruit flavors of plum, cherry, and strawberries with hints of chocolate and a spicy finish.  It will pair well with steaks, burgers, and pastas with red sauces.






I did not drink this with food
I might drink this again (7/10)
