Mapema, Malbec 2004,USD 20, La Consulta district By Two reknown in winemaking


Mapema, Malbec 2004, By Mapema (Jose Galante & Mariano Di Paola) ,USD 20
Very nice malbec from La Consulta in San Carlos Department, Mendoza (with Tupungato and Tunuyan in the middle of Uco Valley). Well matured malbec with creme de cassis, boysenberries cooked and genltly sour. Soft dark chocolate and almost vanished vanilla. Quite balanced. Only a little bit short aftertaste but wide palate all through. I´d say a 89 points malbec with very good value component. No more aging for this malbec. Hard to say but probably better younger.
