Tasting - Birds & Bees Sweet Red

 Name: Birds & Bees Sweet Red
Variety: Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: NV
Price: $9.95

Winery Review: Ripe and red fruit flirts with captivating aromas of honeysuckle and orange blossom, creating and enchanting wine that's both gorgeous on its own and mingles well in a crowd.

My Review: While the aroma of this red is rather pleasant, it has an expected lack of complexity and terrior. I also found this wine hit my palate with an overpoweringly sweet nose and left my mouth feeling coated in sugar. I wonder if chilling this wine would cut the sweetness and make it more pleasing to my palate.

I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
