Centenario Reserve Malbec

Graffigna 2008 Centenario Reserve Malbec

86 Points

The very easy-drinking side of Argentine malbec, and I love these types of wines. It has dried spice aromatics and light, but still gritty tannins, with crunchy acidity and red fruits. If Argentina makes a Beaujolais-styled wine, then this is it. Serve slightly chilled.
