Tasting- Ruta 22 Malbec

Name: Ruta 22 Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Patagonia
Country: Argentina 
Year: NV
Price: $7.95
Vintage Cellar Review: Stout and dense from the beginning, with blackberry and violet aromas. Despite being a bold and dark Malbec, this is fresh and composed, with sweet blackberry and cassis flavors. Good on the finish, with candied fruit and caramel sweetness.
My Review: This wine smelled like berries and licorice.  I did not taste much because the spicy taste from the grape was overwhelming.  I could not taste fruit.  This wine was too bold for me.  I did not like this wine. 
Food: Not tasted with food
