Pascual Toso Malbec Reserve Las Barrancas Vineyards 2015 sku_1878402 Ron barrel-fermented approximately 80 percentThis complex yet well balanced wine presents an elegant style with hints of ripe plums and raspberry fruit. Gentle tannins and slightly toasted, spice and chocolate on the palate and a long, lingering focused finish. This is a solid red with a dense and chewy texture. Full bodied, layered and rich. Tight and focused. Very pretty. Drink now or hold. Ideal match for red meats, lamb, pasta and fermented cheeses.
