Tasting Notes/Food Pairing Suggestions
Aromas of smoky oak and cherry. Mouthwatering, penetrating flavors of ripe red and black cherries, red berries. Quite rich and velvety on the palate. Pairs well with grilled or smoked meats such as beef, pork, and lamb. Also complements dishes prepared with cheese or cream sauces. This is some seriously sexy Malbec.About the Name/Label
Tikal is named after Ernesto’s son. Ernesto named this particular wine "Amorio" ("Love Affair") to convey the deep and enduring feelings that both he and the Argentine people have toward the delicious Malbec grape. The original artwork of this passionate dancing couple was created by Ernesto’s close friend and artist, Ariel Mlynarzewicz. We have no idea how to pronounce Ariel’s last name.Recent Press & Reviews of Tikal Amorio
