La Niña, Malbec 2008, Ugarteche distric in Lujan de Cuyo,By Bodega Don Cristobal 1492,USD 4. Nice malbec with the mix it´s got to have. Deep reddish with violet nose and and mix of red smallfruits and plum (lets say a hint of merlot stick out!) with nice middle palate finishing with hint of smoke.
La Consulta, Malbec Roble 2009, Uco´s Valley, By Finca la Celia, USD 4 (probably sold int´l as Angaro or Furia) Lighter red with sweet cherries and harsh smoke ending. No very malbec but nice.
Callia Alta, Shiraz & Mabec 2009, Tulum´s Valley ,San Juan, By Salentien ,USD 4
Nice red deep with some purple. Fruity balanced with lots of coconuts. Entertains nicely the palate though.
Three 4 bucks to enjoy easily and get paid even. Only La Niña reminds a malbec. Callia Alta won´t deceive.La Consulta shows a oversimplified easy red. Alone or with people I figure they all go nicely with finger food.
