Wine Finder Friday

2007 Don Miguel Gascon - Malbec

This Malbec from Argentina was a pleasant surprise when I first tasted it. I sampled it at Binny's Beverage Depot (www.binnys.com) and noticed how well it was balanced.

The bottle cost around $11.99 and I soon thereafter found it on sale at Jewel for under $10.

It has violet color tones with great fruit flavor start to finish. It boasts plum, black cherry and spice notes throughout the middle. Surprisingly complex and can be drank easily with or without food.

Argentina and Chile are coming out with phenomenal wine for the price. Don't turn your head away from these South American gems.

It's Friday...so raise your glass, and enjoy!
