It is always a pleasure to find a wine that delivers solid varietal characteristics and sense of place at a bargain price, and Trivento’s Reserve Malbec often fits that criteria. Tart black cherry fruit, savory meaty notes and soft oak spice aromas and flavors abound, and some moderate grip extends the finish. This needs a well marbled ribeye steak to show all of its charms, and at this price you can splurge on the meat.
