Surcado, Malbec 2007, By Lina M Gallardo (Bodega Herencias del Sur), Mendoza, USD 12
Absolutely great malbec for no money at all. I know the winemaker but the label doesn´t give much information at all. Great balance of black ripe fruits with a beautiful toast and chocolate surrounding. Boysenberries, blackcherries, less plum than usual all in a perfect acidity and alcohol edge. The beauty and balance are astonishing. A 93 points malbec to enjoy its vivid life for 6 years easily.
The winemaker is Gustavo Agostini, former chief winemaker at Bodega NQN. Sometime team partner in Salentein Wines and now SR chez at Sparklings in Moet Chandon Mendoza.
