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.

A Lisa, Malbec 2009, rich and full Patagonia
A Lisa, Malbec 2009, By Bodega Noemia, Patagonia, USD 30
Impressive malbec from Northpatagonia (Rio Negro Valley). Full of ripe sweet fruit like compoted quince and plum with a touch of red sour small fruits. Adorable chocolate from middle palate to aftertaste. Soft vanilla. A little bit over the top for fruitiness to my palate. Probable best somewhere 4 to 6 years of proper cellar. (I still remember that 2004 A Lisa tasted 2009 and wonderfully aged to a 94 points) I´d say a 90 points malbec with very good price value.
