Tasting - HD Malbec



Name:  HD (stands for Hector Durigutti)
Variety:  Malbec
Region:  Mendoza
Country:  Argentina
Year:  N/A (I believe it's 2015)
Price:  $20
Winery review:  Concentrated wine with an intense ruby red color. The nose is fresh and floral with notes of cherries and ripe plums. The palate has lingering tannin and a good balance of acidity.
My review:  Not my favorite variety.  It was a very tart wine for my tastes, but I picked up on figs, chocolate, tobacco/smoke, and cherries.  I did not try this wine with food.
