Cruz Alta, Blend Reserve 2009, By Bodega La Rural (Rutini Wines), USD 10
A Cabernet Sauvignon blend (50%) with some Malbec and Merlot complimenting.Vineyards from Altamira and Tupungato in Uco valley. The winery itself is one of Catena´s group.Nice red easy and sweet like most Tupungato´s reds. Ripe blueberries and blackcherries on a delicate acidity and alcohol. Some basic complexity in terms of fruit palette. Soft chocolaty note and almost no herbality or peppery notes. An 86 points blend nice and basic at a premium level with most of Tupungato imprints.
Good value and a young to drink before 4 years old.
