Mai Mendoza Malbec

Deep color, plum festival

Vintage 2007 - Classic style.

A high altitude Malbec with more density and structure than juiciness. Still young and a safe bet to hold for a couple more years at least.

This is the way Malbec should be. Good balance and body. Great fruit and complexity.

Gauchos Montar!

Big and burly Malbec. Very pure and convincing, meaty, bloody, dark fruit. Serve slightly chilled to keep the notes of alcoholic heat in check.
Suckling 98

v14. Very nice. Sharp, smoke meat nose. Juicy, deep, black cherry and blackberry fruit. Full, dry, slightly tight and chalky, mocha and dried herb finish.

Drinking very well. Smooth. Few tannins. Very nice.

Outstanding Malbec. Classic rich Malbec. Well balanced. Velvety mouthfeel. Excellent QPR.
