About This Wine
Popular Wines Made From Malbec Varietal Grapes:
- Cot
- Cahors
- Auxerrois
- Malbeck
- Pressac
- Anjou
- Coteaux du Loir
- Touraine
These wines are easy to drink and they go well with or without food. Some people love to call Malbec a working man’s Merlot, as the wine has many of the same characteristics that make Merlot easy to drink, with an added spice and acidity that makes it seem less polished. Malbec is the guy who rides the Harley to Merlot’s guy that drives the Vespa.
Taste: A violet bouquet with dark fruit flavors of blackberry, cherry and plum, accompanied by notes of spice and tobacco.
Body: Full
Acidity: Low
Age: Most should be enjoyed within a few years, but the best wines from Cahors age extremely well gaining complexity.

United StatesStill cooking
This was a decent kit that is still in the secondary fermentation stage. I waited a week and once the airlock stopped bubbling I added 50 grams of toasted American oak chips and waited another week before racking. Smells good so far. Have to wait another 2 weeks before it's ready to bottle.

Ingredients are packaged well and instructions are easy to follow. Wine is bulk aging so won't have a comment on taste for another 6 months. Did taste a sample during stabilization and it was just "OK"....way too young for review. Recommend kit only at this juncture...hoping it's gonna be great tasting too. Gary C - Corona, CA
