Piattelli Vineyards Malbec Grand Reserve

This pitch-dark Malbec from Cafayate is concentrated and heavy on the nose, with grapy blackberry aromas that are doing their best to stay fresh and clean. A full-force, grapy palate deals chocolaty black-fruit flavors in front of a warm finish where toasty oak and graphite notes come onto the scene. Moderately inky, chocolate, tobacco, and blackberry. Relatively tanniny but drinkable our of the bottle.
