Winery - Tango Sur
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Blueberry jam and some violet-like aromas get it off the mark, with plum and black cherry flavors playing second fiddle. Mildly tart and zesty in terms of feel, with a light finish. Mainstream all the way.

Strange, rubbery and a little funky as well. At least in the mouth the feel is solid and the acidity up where it should be. Just a weird wine that proves that Argentina is not really rosé country.

Seems like its best days are behind it. That said, there’s still some fire in the hole and kick to this South American PG. Pineapple is the lead aroma and flavor, with pink grapefruit and passion fruit sitting in reserve. Has flow but is starting to fall apart.

Light and easy, with honey aromas. White peach and underripe cantaloupe work the flavor profile, followed by almond notes and some creaminess on the finish. Pleasant enough.

Ripe and heavy on the nose, with hints of stewed plum, berries and chocolate. More chunky prune and plum follows in the mouth. Entirely drinkable but not refined.

The earthy plum aromas seem common, as if you’ve been there before. Flavors of plum, berry and rhubarb, however, are fresh and zesty. Good on the palate and healthy, with decent tannins and some chocolate to the finish.

Clean and medium weight, with simple red-fruit and cherry-cola aromas. Forward plum and berry carry the palate, which spreads out with no frills over the finish. Somewhat smoky and burnt on the aftertaste, but still pretty good mainstream stuff.

Raisiny and fat, not exactly the most welcoming notes. Tastes overripe and sugary, with a finish too much like sherry.

Ripe, tight and fresh, this is what everyday Merlot should be like. There’s some roast meat and leather atop cherry on the nose, and behind that there’s black fruit, leather, bacon and pepper flavors. A totally legitimate table wine for a good price.

Rubber and funk on the nose give way to cleaner cherry. Flavors of strawberry and raspberry are a bit dilute but not watery. Light and smooth enough late, with a bit of bubble gum but no flab.
