Don Diego , Syrah & Cabernet Sauvignon 2009, not even...


Don Diego Syrah Cabernet Sauvignon 2009, By Finca Don Diego, USD 14

A single vineyard bi-varietal blend co-harvested and co-fermented with oak chips.
The wine comes from Fiambala Valley in Catamarca Province.
A nicely scented red with memories of red fruits. A little bit dissapointing afterwards with a non pleasant sourness on the palate like barely cooked plums to a sour premature jam. Mild herbal and peppery notes on a barely detectable chocolate. I don´t feel it attractive although it portrais a basic drinkablity. An 81-82 point red that doesn´t worth half the price. Far from an Argentina´s value.
