Thank you, Anthony at Wine Store, for always suggestive selling me on exactly what I want! This is Caymus's Malbec, and you can definitely tell they are sisters. Not a huge Malbec fan, but this is nice and for $39 at WS, down. with. it! Lots of signature Malbec fruit, Caymus-like nose, a good guilt-free weekday indulgence.

So, I bought this at the rack rate of $50. But then @Ron R had me on the hunt for more wines. I stumbled across this wine now at $39. For me, that's a psychological threshold. Consequently, I thought this was worth a third look as I might now reconsider purchasing. As an added bonus, I thought this would go well with the pork chop and salad I was having for dinner.
There is a delicious intensity here. It's almost indescribable. Again, as I posted the last time, it feels and smells manufactured. This is the diametric opposite of a wine's terroir. Further, it retains all the things I liked when I very first had Caymus. There isn't a ton of complexity here, but that's ok.
Yes, I could be drinking better intellectual wines for the price, but, sometimes, it's ok to watch wresting or football and just enjoy the ride.

What you would expect from a Caymus Malbec. Full bodied, fruit forward and smooth effort. You can definitely find a better way to spend $50 on wine, but it is a very solid bottle.
