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.

Textual Marselan 2010, a timid red thought up in France and grown up in Mendoza
Textual, Marselam 2010, By Bodega Zucardi, USD 12
A hybrid grape from Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache Noir thought up in France and grown up somewhere in Mendoza. A timid red with nice dark red color and some fruity expression but scarce and thinny backboned. Almost no oak either, even essentially balanced it shows no attractiveness.
Like a lessen Cabernet Sauvignon and a weak Grenache. A 80 points red I wouldn´t buy twice at this price.
