Ricardo Santos, Malbec 2010, every vintage is consistent with an ARG value


Ricardo Santos, Malbec 2010, By Ricardo Santos 13
An always single vinyeard malbec (Finca Las Madras) from Russell District in Maipu Departament of Central Mendoza.
Years has passed and the consistency is amazing, more if I think of Argentinian wines. Wide palate of mostly red fruits ripe and beautiful given the acidity and alcohol quite confortable. No much oak, actually not any. An 89 point malbec from Maipu honoring that terroir at a premium level. Probably better a couple of years ahead. Either way I don´t feel it´ll get better after 4 years old. Good value.
