Tasting - Fetzer Malbec

I did not pair this wine with food

Name: Fetzer Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $15, on sale for $7.95

Professional Review:
Delicious Malbec is 100% from Mendoza, Argentina. It has a vibrant red color with violet tones. Subtle and delicious aromas with an intense mixture of red fruits, plum and cherry jam. On the palate it’s juicy and has intense wood-like tannins that make it a rustic, yet versatile wine. Long finish.

My Review:
This deep red wine smelled of dark fruits, especially cherries. To me, I tasted figs. It was fairly sweet. Wasn't bad, but wasn't overly exciting. I would recommend it.
