The second wine we put the screw caps to was a Malbec from Pascual Toso. This was a wine that had no real nose to it. Not that that is an entirely bad thing. Though it was high in alcohol, it didn't have that boozy smell that some powerful California reds pack.
A Malbec loaded with pepper, this is a spicy wine which some in the group found off-putting.
Filled with hints of dark fruits like blackberries and cherries as well as fresh currants, this is a dry, fruit back wine with a quick finish. This wine could cut right through the richness of a big, juicy hamburger.
I can recommend this wine at the price I bought it for: $9.99 with an even stronger buy order if you see it on sale for $7.99.
