Bodega El Esteco
Ciclos Icono Red Blend
Cafayate, Salta, Northwestern Provinces, Argentina
Highly concentrated, with lots of blackberries, prunes, tabaco and Nice acidicity. Slightly more alcohol than I prefer, but nicely balanced.

Oct 24th, 2016Very drinkable Malbec. This was the recommended Malbec by the waiter at Las Nazarenas in Buenos Aires. Under 300 pesos (<30 CAD)

May 21st, 2016Overall well balanced. Light to medium body. First flavor is fruity and smoky, that's very pleasant & enjoyable. Middle to last note, it doesn't show much depth from tannin, so slightly sharp - I mean, first flavor has gone at that timing so leaves just alcohol. That's not my kind. Maybe I just choose full body wine all the time. But this is not bad as first red wine with appetizer. Or with whom don't like full body red wines.
