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.

A Lisa, Malbec 2010, another NorthPatagonian to discover sip after sip
A Lisa, Malbec 2010, By Bodega Neomia de la Patagonia SA, USD 24
www.bodeganoemia.com
A malbec from 'Valle Azul' district of Rio Negro Valley, Rio Negro Province in North Patagonia.
A tipical malbec from North Patagonia with all the usual richness and attraction of deep red berries,wide palate and a nice smoke and dark chocolate in a comtinum.
Full and delicate at the same time but not weak at all. Nice concentration but not overexpressed.
It grows fuller after an hour uncorked. This malbec is complete and round now but may get more complex close to its 4th year. A 91 point malbec that might reach 93 at its best time. A great value. One of those wines to enjoy several times picking apart its components.
