Tasting notes of a local wine lover without elegant literacy or web design. Just plain wine talk. By the same token I analyze the opened bottle with my senses, just at the very end I re-check the producer (I first checked it when bought it for sure!),vintage,terroir,and price. These data allow me to reconstruct the wine and trace a botton line.

Marchiori & Barraud Malbec 2007, Cuartel 2, an outstanding Perdriel malbec
Marchiori & Barraud Malbec 2007 Cuartel 2 , USD 30
A signature Malbec from Perdriel District of Lujan de Cuyo Dpt, Central Mendoza.
A super malbec with adorable balance of fruits and a delicious chocolate and coffee not overexpressed at all. Sweet ripe plum and cherries well sustained by acidity and alcohol. Inviting sip after sip. A standard attraction and a great value from Mendoza. Probably best some point the first 6 years old to keep all the beauty together. A 91 points malbec to enjoy young.
