Wine Talk — Malbec

THE AFICIONADO WINE OF THE WEEK Clos Siguier Cahors Malbec 2017 This is a Malbec from an old-world region that neighbors Bordeaux and identifies its wines with the grape. Plum, cherry, and black tea notes on the nose, with a fruit-driven palate that is backed by great minerality, moderate acidity, and finishes with silken tannins. Enjoy with duck breast, beef stew, or roasted lamb. ONLY $16.99 ORDER HERE

Wines of the Week! 2015 Prodigo Nero D'Avola  This is a taught, sleek number from Sicily. Aromas of ripe, dark-skinned fruit and a whiff of exotic spice lead the nose on this straightforward red. The medium-bodied palate offers fig, a touch of vanilla, black cherry and star anise. The finish is dusty, with moderate tannins that leave a welcome, tongue-drying finish. Perfect with brisket, ribs or a rack of lamb!Reg. $11.99                                                            ...
