Calatayud Malbec 2009 a premium value from Tunuyan and under 10 bucks


Calatayud, Malbec 2009, By Jose Calatayud (Altos Viñedos), USD 8

A malbec from Tunuyan Departament of Uco Valley, Mendoza
Not far from the typical premium Uco´s backbone: sweet little blackberries, attractive and easy to drink.
A little pinch of chocolate. Nice to enjoy before 4 years old. Well structured but short palate and even shorter aftertaste. All in all an 87 points malbec that should be competitive even in the 10-15 bucks´s shelve.
