Tasting - Lamadrid Malbec Rose

Lamadrid Malbec Rose

Variety: Malbec (100%)
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2010
Price: $10.95
Shop review: Tobacco and black cherry nose; real dark cherry sweet tarts flavors in the mouth; medium body, a touch spicy in the mouth, fairly simple, appealing, dark rose.
My review: The nose is full of rich floral scents with a hint of spiciness. It reminded me of wet leaves on a rainy autumn day. On the palate, it was spicier than I expected, even though it was relatively light in spice compared to the other wines I tasted that day. The taste of tobacco really came through. It was a very unique wine to me and I enjoyed it compared to others.
I did not have food with this tasting.
