title: Melipal 2009 Malbec (Mendoza)
description: Piercing on the nose, with toasty oak scents, mint and lemon along with standard blackberry and raspberry. Feels good and tight, with a structured composition and bright flavors of cherry, plum and toast. Turns chocolaty and a touch salty on the finish. A nice, stocky, lively wine.
variety: Malbec
