Phebus - MMC Malbec Merlot Cabernet

Phebus MMC is a delicious wine. MMC is the acronym for the grapes used in this wine - Malbec, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The winery is located in Mendoza, Argentina - the epicenter for all things Malbec. The Malbec grape flourishes in arid, sandy soil, which Mendoza is known for. Thus, this region is particularly famous around the world for the excellent Malbec produced there.

The Phebus MMC is the perfect example of a good Argentinian Malbec. It is bold, forward, and slightly Tannic. The best qualities of the Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon shine through here. To the eye: it presents a dark, deep, ruby red. On the nose: big notes of red berries and cherries are most noticeable here. On the palate: while bold, the wine is quite gentle on the tongue and is not overpowering. It is indeed quite beguiling. It presents red fruits and berries, like cherry, plum, and blackberry.

This wine is very easy to drink and pairs perfectly with dishes that are big and bold. Like with any good Argentinian red, it pairs excellently with grilled meats, rich pasta sauces, and pizza.
