Winery review:
Garnet color. Aromas of black cherry, plum jam, rich dark soil, and violet honey with a lightly tannic, lively, dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, complex, medium-long black cherry, rich garden soil, crushed plum, and cinnamon toast finish with medium tannins and moderate oak. Dense, dark and chewy with earthy complexity, balancing the luscious jammy fruit qualities of new world with earthy qualities of old world wines. - See more at: http://www.tastings.com/Wine-Review/El-Ganador-2014-Malbec-Mendoza-Argentina-10-15-2015.aspx#sthash.57rc5ODo.dpuf
My review:
I liked this wine. The deep red, almost brown color that it had was very interesting, I feel. I enjoyed the raisiny, sweet smell that wine gave off. I did not enjoy that the wine was very dry. It gave me a warm feeling on my tongue with a spicy aftertaste. It was a very interesting wine.
Food or no food:
I didn't have this wine with food.
