The first one of the night! A nice full bodied Argentinian Malbec. I don't usually like South American wines but it would be stupid to only tried wines that you knew were "safe" at a wine festival. The bouquet has a nice forward spice with oak, full plum and blackberry notes. The palate brings flavours of cocoa, spice, blackberry, oak, with a long dry finish. The winery is in Mendoza but I'm unsure if the grapes are from that area or not. Oh those crazy Argentinians...
