title: Rutini 2009 Trumpeter Malbec-Syrah (Mendoza)
description: Opens with hard, rubbery, leathery aromas. In the mouth, it's thick and chewy with black fruit but also an herbal edge. There's depth and plenty of oak here, and it finishes sweet and relatively smooth. Starts rough, improves in the middle, and then finishes fairly well.
variety: Malbec-Syrah
designation: Trumpeter
