Achaval Ferrer Malbec 2015 Review
Expressive, floral notes of violet lavender overlay classic blackberry fruit on this Malbec’s nose, giving way to a smooth, restrained palate. The grape’s Bordeaux origins are evident, given the green pepper flavors present, but round red wine lovers will be pleased with the wine’s pretty, balanced character.
