Santa Julia Reserva Malbec 2018 Review
The price is right, and the wine is right. There is a lot of affordable Malbec out there, so when you see this bottle just grab it. This feels like the correct way to make entry-level Malbec. It has all of the deep mocha and vanilla smells you know, but there is something different here. From the core of the dark fruit you get a slight note of pepper. And that pepper is what sets it apart. It’s deep, and balanced, and ready for a steak night, so grab a few bottles and have a time!
