Punto Final Malbec Classico 2008 - $12



A Malbec from Argentina. Deep-purple in color. 97% Malbec with 3% Cabernet Franc.

David: A bold red wine with a deeper layered taste. Dark fruits, raspberries, black cherry dominate at the beginning combined with a nose of leather and earthy notes giving way to some smokiness and sharp peppery tastes and tannins which linger to a very long ending. We had it with a very nice chicken parm and fettuccini dish (made by wife) and it went fairly well.
Score: 4.3/5

Jessica: initially sharp dark...evolves to have a lingering sweetness...dry...purples the mouth
Score: 4/5
