The Alamos Malbec is your typical big bold Malbec. The nose was all dark berry and currant. While the wine mellowed as it breathed, the bouquet stayed nice and full and bold. On the palate this Malbec all bold and tannic. Dark berries and cherries with hints of leather and tobacco flow nicely with each other across the palate. As the wine goes down the boldness asserts itself. Towards the mid-palate you start to get a nice touch of spice. The Malbec finishes strong and full with audacious tannins.
It pretty much goes without saying that the wine and steak went great together. We got the 2009 Alamos Malbec from our friend Isaac Guerra as an apartment warming gift. Pris thinks it came from Jones Liquor before that though. We have a 2010 we picked up, but that one is going to cellar for a bit.
