60% Malbec, 40% Syrah. La Rioja, Argentina. Produced and bottled by: La Riojana COOP. 13.5%
Imported by: Oenos Global Inc. San Diego, CA.
Tart and smokey nose. A little diffuse and faded. Not nose filling nor expansive. Fruit forward with some nice ink and smoke tones. Tart and a tad bitter. Good but lacking dimensions. Not really "smooth" but "slender". Nice earthy/herby finish. A very pleasant wine, but not very intriguing. Definitely not up to the importers bottle catchphrase, "if you have never tasted passion, now you know what it feels like..." But, the best yet in the Syrah's around the world six pack from Mom.
