It is no secret that I like a good Malbec and the only thing better is a very good Malbec on sale. Bodega Goulart The Marshall Malbec 2009 is a rock solid wine with a full body that follows through with big bold black fruit flavors and a white pepper spice coming out at the finish. The tannins are intense but rounded off by 18 months of aging in French oak. Another thing you will want to take the time to see is the deep ruby-red color that has to be seen to be understood. This is a very good Argentinian Malbec that is straightforward and not overly complex. My recommendation is to just pull the cork and enjoy it. PLCB code 33023 WE/90 rating 14% alcohol $13.99 that is a savings of $13.01 so why not get 2 bottles.

So you think it is more of an everyday type wine? More pizza or steak?

I like drinking Malbec with a hearty steak dinner, chorizo or even a thick beefy hamburger anytime. Don’t wait, enjoy the “NOW”, if we have learned anything from recent events it is that “No one is promised tomorrow”. I did take some liberties with the truth in this post by saying “pull the cork” because this bottle actually has a screw top 🙂

Thank you for deciding to follow Rivertop Rambles! My wife and I are more into homebrewing of beer at this point, but every now and then we love to hit the wine trail (along with my son and friends) and explore new flavors, so I’m sure we’ll be around.
