Mixed Emotions and Blended Red


I'm 15 days away from being done at Virginia Tech. I'm thrilled and terrified. Mixed emotions call for mixed wine. This is it...
Name: Aconga
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Vintage: 2010
Price: $4
Wine Critic Review: I found this wine quite pleasant and easy to drink DH pretty much puts all wines in the fridge (gasp), anyway straight from the fridge it is a bit too harsh, but pour into a glass and let it air out and warm up a bit it is quite nice. It is not overly dry but you can definitely taste the dry tones of the Cabernet.
Personal Review: A bit spicy but not overpowering. Blackberry hint, kind of jammy.
Food pairing: none
