Wine Finder Friday


Take a deep breath...it's Friday, and that means wine time.

This Friday's selection is the 2007 Trapiche Oak Cask Malbec from the Mendoza  region situated at the foothills of the Andes Mountains. Trapiche is the most well known wine maker in Argentina and dates all the way back to 1883.

This great value at $9 boasts soft tannins and displays plum and blackberry upon first blush. It has a surprisingly long finish of black pepper spice and hints of vanilla.

I tried this wine at a friend's birthday party, was completely taken by surprise, and followed up with a Wine Finder Friday post.

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