Urraca, Primera Reserva 2005, By Viñedos Urraca S.A. (Familia Langley, Urraca Wines), USD 25
A malbec and merlot blend from High Agrelo District in Lujan de Cuyo Departament, Central Mendoza. urracawines.com
A superpremium red with rich mix of forrest fruits and ripe plum. All quite balanced and attractive. A noticeable but partially expressed oak with mostly chocolate and toasty notes. A red walking its late plateau of matureness. Surely the best lies between 6 and 8 years given the beauty and firmness of its tannins. A 91 point red and a very good value.
