The 2005 Laborum Malbec also spent 10-12 months in new French and American oak. Opaque purple-colored, it offers up an expressive nose of pain grille, graphite, cinnamon, incense, and black cherry. Medium-bodied and elegant on the palate, it is already revealing some complexity as well as a solid core of savory, spicy fruit. It has enough structure to evolve for 2-3 years and will be at its best from 2011 to 2020. Importers: Graziano Imports, Miami, FL; tel. (305) 418-9498; Vinos Unico, San Francisco, CA; tel.
