Tasting - Maipe Malbec

Maipe
Malbec
Mendoza, Argentina
2015
$6.95
Robert Parker: 87 pts. The 2015 Maipe Malbec is another 100% Malbec, with a deep purple color and a style similar to the Lexicon, with chocolatey, blackcurrant and blackberry fruit, as well as touches of licorice and earth. It is delicious, soft, and round.
Color: Deep red
Smell: oakey, cherry
Taste: Oakey, dry, little sour
Personal rating: I'm not digging this wine. I didn't find it "soft and round". I found it to be an unappealing wine.
