A quiet night in after a hard week's work. A scrumptious dinner of roasted pork in a cream sauce with mushrooms, and a side of cold broccoli. The cat slumbering peacefully on an old ottoman by the fireside.
Here's Agustinos' Malbec 2008: The odor strong and pungent, holding the promise of an eye-watering experience. The first sip is amazingly tart -- Fire on the lips and tongue, and then a long, slow burn all the way down the throat. Holy smoke, do I hate this wine! A simply astonishing level of displeasure all through the ingestive tract.
... And hours later, a warm queasy feeling still remains in the stomach.
