Kooch, Coleccion Malbec 2008, a great Malbec from Añelo district of Neuquen province





Kooch Coleccion Malbec 2008, By Cofruva S.A. , USD 40


A wonderful Malbec from Añelo distric in Neuquen Province, North Patagonia.
Rich compote of quince and plum with red cherries even keeping a touch of fresh fruit too. Soft chocolaty and toasty notes well entangled. Nice acidity and alcohol backing up the expressive tannins typical of this terroir. Equilibrated and covering all over the palate with nice aftertaste. A 90 points Malbec probably best between 4 and 6 years of cellar. Not a great value as paid here. I feel more a malbec for the 20-25 range.
