Finca Flichman Malbec 2005, Argentina

Finca Flichman

The Finca Flichman Oak Aged Reserva Malbec 2005 Mendoza, Argentina (Waitrose) is a delightful bargain at £68.12 for a case of 12 (£5.69 per bottle). Its smoky taste is ideal with something pork-and-applely, it makes me want to have a BBQ right now, definitely a wine to evoke the late Summer vibe. Having been to Mendoza in July, it equally creates in me (and hopefully in you) a feeling of fernweh.

P.S. Excuse the pretentious German word, there isn’t one in English that sums that feeling up in two syllables.
