the 2015 El Enemigo Malbec feels a bit closed and has a reductive personality

sweet raspberry and cherry notes mingling with earth and minerals

Tintonegro Malbec Limestone Block 2017 Color:Red rhubarb and slight licoriceGritty, smoky black fruit aromas come across as fully oaked. Racy acidity drives this nicely balanced Malbec grown on limestone soils, while blackberry, plum and a touch of oakdriven vanilla complete the flavor profile.
