Tasting- "Obvio- 2009"



Name: Obvio

Variety: Malbec

Region: Mendoza

Country: Argentina

Year: 2009

Price: $9.99

Review: "Aged for 6 months in a combination of small French and American oak barrels.
Complex and deep red and dark berry flavors"

My Review:This is quite possibly my favorite red wine I've had. It was very easy to drink and enjoyable. I never got the typical red wine taste. I would describe it as very smooth almost buttery but not in the same way as a white wine. It has a lot of layers that I enjoyed tremendously.

I drank this wine before I ate and with steak with a red wine sauce (with this wine). It was awesome together, the wine tasted even better than the times I drank it with pasta and red sauce. It was sort of like when socks coordinate with each other. They aren't the same, but it tasted so good having the two coordinate!
