Tasting - Tilia



Name - Tilia 

Variety -  Malbec

Country- Argentina

Year - 2011

Price - $8.99

Shop/wine critic/winery review - Tilia Malbec has a dark, blackish purple color. The nose offers ripe black fruits, black pepper spice and floral notes. The mouth-feel is full yet soft and supple, with black raspberry and currant flavors mingled with notes of sweet spice and a touch of leather. The finish is long and persistent with soft, sweet tannins.

My Review -  The color was a deep purple that reminded me of plums.  The aroma had a peppery scent and dark blackberries. The palate was full bodied, mildly tannic and a dark raspberry flavor.  This wine was very good, rating 7.5/10.

Food- None
