Domaine Bousquet’s Gaia is a savory mix of 50% Malbec, 45% Syrah and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon that heralds a fine Mendoza vintage. Meaty, peppery aromas entice you into the glass, and the palate translates to nose elements well, adding dark fruit, a touch of charred oak and brown spice. Give this a good airing before serving with roast beef or a pepper forward steak.
