Tasting notes of a local wine lover without elegant literacy or web design. Just plain wine talk. By the same token I analyze the opened bottle with my senses, just at the very end I re-check the producer (I first checked it when bought it for sure!),vintage,terroir,and price. These data allow me to reconstruct the wine and trace a botton line.

Filus, Reserve Malbec 2005, beauty from Lunlunta Valley
Filus Reserve Malbec 2005, By Filus, USD 15
Beautiful Malbec from Lunlunta Valley, Maipú departament, Mendoza. Nicely aged with sweet red and black fruits mostly cherries and blackberries. Soft chocolate from oak and wide middle palate with short but not deceptive end of palate. I´d say a wine for less than 6 years cellar and a 89 points malbec with nice balance and typicity from Lunlunta. Very good value.
