On the palate, you'll taste blackcurrant, plum, and a hint of chocolate with a soft, supple finish. This smooth finish makes this Malbec a delicious everyday wine, but also pairs well with meat dishes.","brand":"Wijntransport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775763648591,"sku":"6180","price":9.89,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/domaine-bousquet-malbec_6180.webp?v=1770046484"},{"product_id":"domaine-bousquet-chardonnay","title":"Domaine Bousquet Chardonnay","description":"What a treat this white Chardonnay from Domaine Bousquet in Argentina is!
