Tasting notes of a local wine lover without elegant literacy or web design. Just plain wine talk. By the same token I analyze the opened bottle with my senses, just at the very end I re-check the producer (I first checked it when bought it for sure!),vintage,terroir,and price. These data allow me to reconstruct the wine and trace a botton line.

Alfredo Roca, Family Reserve Malbec 2007, a malbec everybody should know
Alfredo Roca, Family Rserve, malbec 2007, By Roca Wines, USD 23
A superb malbec from San Rafael Valley , South Mendoza
Pure ripe black plum with black patagonian cherries in a delicious balance. Round and smooth tannins keeping the beauty of malbec. Sweet smoke and dark chocolate. Not too long though. Very attractive malbec. A 92 point malbec that will evolve nicely 3 to 5 (2015-2017) years ahead. A supervalue genuine Argentina´s south.
