(12.5% alc. by vol.)
DtS Rating: 5.5/10 - Not that sweet
A customer asked for this and being that halloween is approaching, we ordered some. A Malbec is an interesting wine. This Argentinian kind is slightly sweet but almost "spicy" dark cherry with a hint of vanilla in its lingering faint after taste. I would say its comparable to a Cabernet Sauvignon with a "spice" to it. At least GatoNegro does. I was going to give this wine an 8.4 but it receives a -.5 deduction because it was a twist off. At $6.99 for 750mL this wine still gets a 7.9/10 for effort - its currently my recommendation for a cheap Malbec (although its got nothing like Bodega, Falling Star, or Naked Grape - those reviews coming soon!)
