Always an excellent value, the 2016 Alamos Selección Malbec is consistent with previous vintages, with a nose generously imbued with plums, black cherries, bittersweet chocolate, earth, and lilting violets. It’s medium-bodied, with fine, slightly green tannins and taught acidity—a pleasant herbaceous note emerges at the finish—cedar, bay leaf, green peppercorn, and sagebrush. 13.5% ABV | Sample
