Wine of the Week for March 28, 2011

Argento Riserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 - $12.95
Style: R3
Argentina
Deep garnet-black cherry colour, showing an opulent nose of rich spice, plum, tobacco, and chocolate. Silky smooth on the palate with cherry/raspberry flavour, firm acidity and soft tannins. Quite big and with very good  length. A great nose here with youngish palate. Could cellar well for 2-3 years plus, but yummy right now paired with beef tenderloin, rich stews are hearty cheeses.  (LCBO 164764)

Currently 137 LCBO stores have 6 or more bottles (according to on-line database)
