Elementos, malbec 2010, a Cafayate best value for under 7


Elementos, malbec 2010, By Bodega El Esteco, USD 7



Good and attractive malbec from high Cafayate Valley in Salta (above 1,700 mts or 5,500 ft). Nice ripe fruits jammy and strong in terms of good alcohol and acidity.Black Plum and balckberries dominates.Soft chocolate. Wide palate and nice aftertaste. A wine to enjoy before 4 years. A sure thing to order or get off the shelf once and again. Few things so solid and likeable under 7-8 bucks. On top of that it shows consistent quality vintage after vintage. A 85 points malbec with great typicity for Cafayate Valley. A best value for under 8.
