Valle Las Acequias Malbec

Valle Las Acequias Malbec 466722

A spicy nose, diffusing lots of anise and black pepper, as well as ripe strawberries and raspberries. Very pretty and arresting. The palate falls on the elegant side of malbec with lots of vibrancy and transparency. Very smooth, poised and nimble. Very drinkable. Drink now.
