Doña Paula, Selección de Bodega, malbec 2006, By Viña Doña Paula, USD 40
A concentrated and potent malbec made of blending Lujan de Cuyo and Uco Valley Malbec vineyards. Sweet ripe red cherries with nice alcohol and acidity. Good vanilla and black plummy notes too . Minty or eucalytus scent usual in some Uco´s reds (not necessarily malbecs). Wide middle palate and a nice aftertaste. A malbec of 89 points. I feel it too expensive given the standard around.You may get much better complexity and elegance at that price level. A Malbec to cellar 6-8 years to discover better. I´d buy it again many others rather than this one. Sorry but not a great Mendoza´s value.
