Achaval Ferrer - Malbec 2005 - Quimera


Animal and licorice nose with a strong foreshadowing of the spicey pallet. The taste is sweet to start but gives way to an interesting combination of roasted meats, grilled prawn and ultimately a very balanced and earthy aftertaste. The tannins and oak components are not overly strong, but it does seem that this Merlot / Cabernet Savignon / Cabernet Franc blend will set down nicely and grow through the years.
