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.

Portal Andino, Gran Malbec 2009, basic and nice but hard to join with 15 bucks price
Portal Andino, Gran Malbec 2009, By Frutal Genetica SA, USD 15
no www. what so ever
A single vineyard malbec from General Alvear (Lower Atuel River Valley), South Mendoza.
A nice malbec with the basics in there. Plummy and a good deal of red and black berries ripe and sweety.
Mild oak notes mostly toasty and chocolate. An 88 point no to remembrer malbec with some remembrance of virtued south mendoza
A good malbec but hard to join with the 15 bucks to pay.
