Goyenechea, Centenario, malbec 2007, By Bodegas Goyenechea, USD 6
A typical Malbec from Atuel Valley in San Rafael, South Mendoza.
Great balanced malbec with wide palate and at the same time smooth and vivid tannins. A deepness of ripe fruit mostly red berries and smoke caramel. From the deep ruby on you toach a delicate malbec.Gentle chocolate edge. Not complex neither concentrated to be a supermalbec.
A 86 points malbec to enjoy fully 4-6 years born. A great value for 6 bucks. I haven´t tasted any international wine from any place around the world meeting this quality for less than 12 bucks.
This terroir deep south Mendoza (San Rafael and Atuel River Valley) produces wines close in character to north Rio Negro and west La Pampa (25 de Mayo wines for example). Wide palate and nicely complex tannins. Good examples are Bianchi,25/5 (25 de Mayo), Goyenechea amongs others.
