Nube Negra, Malbec 2008 By Eduardo Vidal, USD 32

A signature malbec from a single vineyard in Uco Valley, Mendoza
Nice and round malbec well balanced but not very attractive and competitive at 30 bucks level. The cork was inked half way up to the surface which surely means some unwanted oxidation.
An 89 point malbec with a weak (or weakened?) structure but even so preserving some premium beauty. Anyway I won't spend 30 bucks twice to see how much was the cork and how much the nature of the wine.
