Jean Bousquet Reserva Malbec / Organic Red Wines

Jean Bousquet - 2007

Bit of a hunk this. Oodles of fruit wrapped in vanilla oak

There's no question that this is Malbec wine but there is a smattering of other grape varieties in here too: Cabernet Sauvignon (5%), Merlot (5%) & Shiraz (5%) which adds additional substance to the wine. Aged for ten months in solely French oak (rather than a combination of American and French), which is generally accepted to deliver a more finesse and subtle flavouring and this works well in this wine which is fantastically intense and has flavours of black fruits, spice, caramel, chocolate, liquorice, fig and much more besides.

Awards and Reviews
Jean Bousquet Reserva Malbec is an excellent introdution to the style. From an organic vineyard in the high-altitude Tupungato region, it's a juicy, spicy youngster, ripe and almost chocolatey, with bouncy berry fruit in abundance.
