Trivento, Lujan de Cuyo (Mendoza, Argentina) Malbec 2012

Feb 11, 2015

By Rich Cook

Trivento’s mid-line Malbec is a big, inky, fleshy, spicy full flavored wine that features ripe blackberry and plum over vanilla and fall spice presented in a dry, mouth filling package made to pair perfectly with a traditional Argentine parilla grill, jugoso, por favor!  It finishes long, and has yet to integrate its oak load fully, but it’s still very approachable at this young age.
