CarinaE Malbec 2011
Red wine of good colour and structure. All of the aromas of red fruit and plums typical of the variety are revealed. It is destined to be consumed while it is still young, although it has an ageing potential of at least 5 years. Our recommendation is to decant it during one hour, then serve it at 15-17° C, accompanying all kind of meals.
