High Altitude Grapes, High Spirited Sipper

Yesterday's selection:
Wine:  Trivento Fair Trade Malbec, 2011
Origin:  Mendoza region, Argentina
Price:  $12.95
CC score:  5 of 5 =TDF

Welp, I think I found my new fave red, and possibly the ultimate Wino wine.  It strikes the perfect blend of flavour vs. price, and it's a fairly traded product!  Ya...  I gave her a 5.

I looked up the winery, as I do, and read that it's part of the Walmarty Concha y Toro group.  Dismayed by this fact as, "Concha y Toro aims to be a leading global branded wine company" says their website (which brings up ethical questions for me....  but I'm gonna let it slide today, and swallow that FairTrade designation as truth and move on).

This wine is young, true, but it is smooth, silky, fruity, dry and just slides right down.  So drinkable, so affordable, it is a perfect easy-to-drink, everyday wine.  Good with a grilled mammal, sharp cheese, pringles or alone.  A+, Trivento, you're a legend.

Damn, you fine.
