The 2017 Domaine Bousquet Malbec begins with a pleasing aroma of blackberry, black cherry and a little bit of earthiness. Taking a sip reveals a tasty, medium-bodied wine that is smooth and round in the mouth with more great fruit laced with touches of spice and black pepper. It ends dry and long with lingering notes of earthiness along with a hint of coffee under the fruit.
The bottom line is that this is simply a tasty, basic Malbec (which is a very good thing in and of itself) at a great price and made with organic grapes to boot. In other words, it’s just plain good!
