Ricardo Santos Las Madras Malbec 2007
100% Malbec

This is a reserve level wine, though Ricardo Santos doesn’t call it that.

Dark garnet color with purple reflections.

Taste isn’t very good at all. It’s extremely...

$35 on Wine-searcher. 1 Vendor.
Dark ruby color, but with many tints of orange, red, and violet. Very Intense.
In contrast, the aroma is rather soft, if not a bit weak. It smells of soil, dirt, and a bit of dried fruit or nuts.
The wine itself has great body, and is very bold, strong, and...
