Selection International Grape Skins Chilean Malbec-Shiraz displays a balance between ripeness and power, with intensely rich Shiraz grapes for a bold ruby purple color, deep, dark plum and blackberry aromas showing subtle accents of chocolate. Malbec brings plum, blackcurrant and violet aromas leading to a slight touch of leather notes. Full-bodied and classically, the gripping tannins linger to an elegant finish of toasty oak and spice. Serve with roasted meats, rich stews, or try it with bittersweet chocolate--this wine can stand up or stand alone and will age gorgeously.
The addition of a grapeskin pack to Winexpert's premium Selection International enhances not only the body, mouth-feel, tannin and color of the wine, it does so without increasing the need for extra aging. These wines drink very well soon after bottling, and will improve on the same scale as regular Selection International: 6-12 months to achieve a high peak of flavor, and improvement for several years under good cellaring.
