Is terrazas Malbec sweet?

Answered by James Smith

Terrazas Malbec Reserva is not considered a sweet . While it does have some fruity notes, it is more characterized by its intense floral and spicy characteristics. The presence of roses and violets in the aroma adds a delicate and perfumed quality to the wine. This is complemented by ripe black cherry aromas, which provide a touch of sweetness to the overall profile.

However, it is important to note that sweetness in wine is a subjective perception and can vary from person to person. Some individuals may perceive the ripe black cherry aromas as sweet, while others may not find it as pronounced. Additionally, the level of sweetness can also be influenced by personal taste preferences and the individual's perception of sweetness in wine.

In my personal experience as a sommelier, I have found that the Terrazas Malbec Reserva is more on the dry side, with a good balance of fruitiness and acidity. The sweetness is not overpowering, allowing the other flavors and characteristics of the wine to shine through.

Ultimately, whether or not the Terrazas Malbec Reserva is considered sweet will depend on the individual's palate and perception of sweetness. It is always recommended to taste the wine for oneself to determine personal preferences and to fully appreciate its flavor profile.
