Familia Giraud Billoud, Reserva (Cruz de Piedra), 2010

Tasting: Argentinian Terroir Malbec

Charry oak dominates the wine but the fruit shows vibrancy of crunchy plums and raspberries. The tannins have been extracted a bit too much unfortunately, but great concentration.

Tasting: Argentinian Terroir Malbec

Lots of graphite and stony minerality on the nose. Peppery with dried flowers and violets. Tannins now becoming very dry, and beginning to turn bitter.

Tasting: Argentinian Terroir Malbec

Sweet and mellow, just like a marmalade, but with enough acidity to balance that sweetness. An international kind of Malbec.
