Michel Torino 2016 Cuma Organic Malbec - 84pts

Availability
: BCLDB Stores
Cost: $11.49-12.49 + taxes
Alcohol: 13%
Date Tasted: March 22nd, 2017

Tasting Notes: Ripe and fruity on the nose, to be sure, but the blueberry and POM juice aromas also tend to veer towards Overdone Street during the initial quaff. The dry palate finishes watery after the plum and cherry-cola flavours fades mid-palate, though, a nice touch of spice and light, dusty tannins linger.
 Drink now-2018.
