Wine in Argentina Tasting Notes

Wine in your own words

Talk about the wines you like in your own words.

2006 Organic Sauvignon Blanc & Torrontes, Famantina Valley, Argentina

Sauvignon Blanc, Torrontes blend

Tasting notes: On the label is described as dry, crisp, and fruity. I endorse crisp and fruity, it was indeed full of fruity flavors. It was not as dry as the label had led me to expect; I found it slightly on the sweet side but more pleasant for it. (Kevin, UK, 8 January, 2007)

2005 Vino Reserva, Finca Flichman, Mendoza, Argentina

Malbec grapes

Tasting notes: We are not experts so I refer to the label: aged six months in oak and further ageing in the bottle. Drink 16-18° C. Aromas of plums and strawberries, soft tannins and lingering finish.

Very good quality red wine We bought in a hurry –grabbed the first bottle of red wine on the shelf- and we were not expecting much but it surprised us. Very subtle aroma and soft, extra smooth taste; it has a long finish without none of the harsh aftertaste other red wines leave behind. It looses a bit of smoothness if left opened for very long.
