Calafate Colección Malbec 2010, a dense and concentrated northpatagonian malbec


Calafate Colección Malbec 2010, By Bodega Dos Andes, USD 12
A malbec from Añelo district in Neuquen Province, North Patagonia.
A rich malbec with a typicity of Northpatagonia. Ripe and sweet red cherries and plum slightly compoted and kind of hot with chocolaty notes in it. A little bit overconcentrated and dense. It may need cellaring kind of 3-4 years to show the best balance. An 87 points malbec and a good value. It wound´t suprise me if reaches an astonishing balance anfter 6 years of proper age.
