Salentein Barrel Selection Malbec
75cl
Beautiful deep purple in colour, this Malbec is fruity and fresh with complex aromas and flavours of red and black fruits, vanilla and a hint of cocoa. It is easy drinking and crowd-pleasing, medium-bodied red that is soft and supple on the palate. Well suited to a variety of foods but goes especially well with steak, lamb, or bean stew.
