This wine is a Malbec from Argentina. We picked this up because we saw that it was a fairly new arrival to Fresh & Easy. |
| $7 from Fresh & Easy |
|
- Aromas of ripe fruit.
- Masculine notes of leather and spice in the taste.
- High tannin content makes it a bit harsh in the mouth.
- Rich and robust tastes of oak and cigar with a lingering finish.
- This wine is not the like the weight watchers breakfast of fresh fruit and yogurt….this wine is much more like a stick to your ribs country style breakfast of steak and eggs with a side of corn beef hash.

- Spicy aromas with a hint of marmalade.
- Oak flavors with higher tannins.
- Decanting is recommended.
- Tastes of dried cherries.
- Like a person who floats around from one group of friends to another group of friends….they come and go as they please and you never know when they are going to show up… but when they do show up, they are usually pretty fun to hang out with.

This is a Malbec Bonarda Blend from Argentina. |
| $5 from Fresh & Easy |
 |
- Very light scents of fruit with a predominant alcohol smell
- Strong tastes of blackberry at first
- Hints of pipe tobacco follow the fruit
- A lot of body but the flavors are not defined….they tend to meld together
- A bit unrefined and boisterous….like the obnoxious friend everyone has in their circle… You can handle him in small doses and you don’t really hate him….you just need to limit your time with him before he becomes a little too much.

This is a Malbec, Bonarda blend from Mendoza Argentina. |
| $10 from Target |
 |
- Vanilla and blackberries with a hint of cotton candy in the aroma.
- Moderate tannins
- Fruit forward taste yet not too sweet.
- Soft smooth mouth feel with a nice dry finish.
- This wine is like a mid-summer day… in the pacific northwest. It’s refreshing and cool in a summery way but not too overpowering.

This wine is a Malbec from Argentina. Argentina, with its sinking currency is now finally able to challenge Chilean wine for a corner of the inexpensive wine market in North America. The label has been created to replicate the colorful houses that make up the town of La Boca that is nestled at the foothills of the Andes. We do suggest trying this because for the price it is well worth it. |
| $3.00 at Trader Joe’s |
 |
- Hints of Chocolate and coffee in the aroma
- The aroma is intense
- The taste was slightly spicy witha little plum
- A bit harsher than past vintages
- Very dry wine with a lot of tannins
- One dimensional in its flavor and a little boring.
- This wine is like free tickets to a baseball game between two teams you do not have a vested interest in. Your glad you got them and not upset that you went, but were not overly thrilled while you were there. It was better than sitting around the house all night but not exactly the World Series either.
