Tasting: Maipe Malbec Rose


  • Name: Maipe Malbec Rosé
  • Variety: Malbec Rose
  • Region: Mendoza
  • Year: 2011
  • Country: Argentina
  • Price: $7.95

My Review: The smell of this wine was light and sweet with  some cherry and berry scents. I almost smelled a bubble gum scent as well. It tasted very similar to the smell with definite strawberry. The finish had a bit of plum in it. I did like the combination of sweet and dry finish however this wine was a bit too sweet for my taste.

Shop Review: Intense pink color with violet hints. Fresh red fruit bouquet, strawberry and cherry flavors, balanced acidity, dry and lingering finish. Excellent with tuna or green salad, pasta, spicy Asian dishes.

I did not try this wine with food but I thought it would be nice by itself or with brunch.
