Tasting - 2012 Cantena Malbec


Name: Cantena 
Variety: Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $19.99

Winery review: "An intense red, with concentrated flavors of dark plum, kirsch, dried beef and baker's chocolate that are flanked by notes of tobacco leaf and ginger. The powerful finish is filled with sanguine details. " Wine Spectator - 90 points

My review: Very rich in color this wine gives off a plum scent with a slight pencil shavings smell. The legs on this wine are intense. Plum flavor with a musty oak taste. This wine is quite good, I give it a go!
