Tasting - Maipe Malbec Rose


Name: Maipe Malbec Rose

Variety: Malbec

Region: Mendoza

Country: Argentina

Year: 2011

Price: $7.95

Winery Review: Intense pink color with violet hints. Fresh red fruit bouquet, strawberry and cherry flavors, balanced acidity, dry and lingering finish. Excellent with tuna or green salad, pasta, spicy Asian dishes.

My Review: This wine was different than other rose wines I have tried in the past.  There was an acidic flavor, even in the nose, of berries.  The taste was sweet up front, but left a bitter aftertaste, again keeping an acidic taste in your mouth.

With Food? No
