Another great find! Gouguenheim Malbec Reserva 2009 from Mendoza, Argentina!
Patricio Gouguenheim found a very old winery located in the Uco Valley, with a lot of small tanks ideal for the production of high quality wines.
Tried this wine on a whim! Served with marinated pork tenderloin, parsley mashed potatoes and fresh green beans. On the first sip, the wine was very appealing. Deep purple color with a very fragrant nose. Fruity, red and black cherry flavors with floral scents. The food brought out even more complex flavors, a perfect paring with the pork.
Can’t wait until tomorrow. Marinated flank steak…wine tbd….
