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.

Lassia Malbec 2009, a supervalue from San Patricio Valley ,North Patagonia
Lassia Malbec 2009, By Bodega Patritti, USD 8
A malbec from San Patricio Valley in Neuquen Province, North Patagonia.

Nice and definitive Patagonian. Naturally concentrated in savors and well defined elements. Red ripe and sweet cherries with black plum slightly sour and sweet. Delicate dark chocolate.
Quite balanced though. A nice red to go fine with many succulent dishes or alone with chocolate. I admit it breaks me with dark chocolate or a sour cheese either. An 89 points and a great (I´d say a super) value from Patagonia.This malbec surely will run nice up to 4 years.
