Tapiz Black Tears Malbec

Intense garnet red in colour. The bouquet shows aromas reminiscent of ripe red fruits, dried plums, figs and jams. They accompany subtle floral and menthol notes. The oak contributes notes of roasted coffee, dark chocolate and dulce de leche. Black Tears is ripe and handsome, with almost everything in its perfect place. It’s a hard-driving wine with blackberry, vanilla and coconut aromas and flavours in front of a chewy, tannin-rich finish with the mildest note of raisin.
