This is the second wine in our Malbec Mania series searching for the best Malbecs under $20. We’ve reviewed a few other wines from Famiglia Meschini in the past like the Chardonnay and theSparkling Torrontés, and liked all of them, but our favorite so far has been the Malbec Syrah blend, which found a spot on our Holiday Top 10 list. Let’s see how the 100% Malbec measures up.

The 2009 Famiglia Meschini Premium Malbec begins with aromas of plum, pepper and a little baking spice and cinnamon. The wine tastes of black cherry and blackberry followed by some woodsy notes. The dry finish features lots of spice, some licorice, and lingering blackberry notes. This one seems a bit out of balance, but still a pretty good wine at a really nice price.
