Casarena 505 Malbec 2013 is one of Lujan de Cuyos best $2 wines! It's price to quality ratio is remarkable. This is a great companion for your daily dinner. Plum, cherry notes with a hint of vanilla. Delish!

I don't care that Tanzer is gaga for this wine: it's boring. Fruit moving toward the red spectrum, sweet, ripe, and fruity, not a lot of character and very simple.

Solid everyday Malbec. Great to pair with a steak.

Needed to breathe for a minute. Once this opened up, tons of black cherry, strawberry, chocolate and coffee. Finishes slightly sweet with a balancing tannic character.

Red fruit on the nose and in the glass. Strong alcohol. Good value for the price.
