Tasting Review - Redwood Creek Malbec

Name: Redwood Creek Malbec
Variety: Black-Skinned Grapes 

Region: Mendoza, Argentina
Country: USA
Year: 2011
Price: $5.99 

Winery Review: Plush flavors of dark fruit coupled with hints of maple and star anise which gives it a velvet finish. 

My Review: This Malbec tasted very dry and I didn't enjoy it very much. I feel like I would appreciate this wine more if I had a better palate for wine. It didn't have a fruity aroma but I did notice there were subtle hints of blueberry and black cherry. 

I didn't try the Malbec with food but I feel like it would pair up well with a pork tenderloin.
