2016 Bodega Rolland Mariflor Malbec Mendoza

This vineyard was planted in 1999 and he does use some older vines from a purchased vineyard. Dark blackberry and blueberry fruit with notes of black earth, dark licorice spice and violet floral notes. Smeels just like a pepperoni pizza on the second day, very strange. A big and chewy wine on the tongue with layers of dark berry fruit, mocha and a host of spice through the finish along with a nice freshness at the end, turning a bit chalky on teh second day Finish 45+ Very Good +
