Terrazas De Los Andes Reserva Malbec 2010, Mendoza
Critic Reviews (2)
This full bodied red captures some fruit richness and decent structure. It has a youthful ripe mulberry/blueberry...
A sumptuous, well-spiced malbec with generous aromatics and flavours. Notes of eucalyptus, milk chocolate and cloves....

Opaque ruby in colour with a medium to medium+ nose.
There are too many Malbec’s that are simple and just don’t meet the quality vs price ratio, however this one does.
Positives: Very tasty Malbec featuring oak, mulberry, plum, smoked Montreal meat, tobacco leaves and a touch of leather. Full body with medium to medium+ tannins, good acidity and a long length.
Negatives: A touch hot from the 14.5% alcohol.
Interesting Notes: Thanks Carol Ann, from WineAlign, for the opportunity to taste this.
Drink now on or over the next 3 years on its own or pair it with venison.

Excessively astringent -- even after aerating and decanting. I wouldn't buy it again.
