Joffre Malbec 2009 (Mendoza)

Tasted 25/02/11, 13.5% ABV, £8.99 Majestic. A good supper Malbec from R J Vinedos, now being imported by Majestic. Nice concentrated crimson colour, dark fruits on the nose with coffee, chocolate and vanilla on the palate. A little closed still and not the most sophisticated Malbec I have ever tasted - perhaps this wine needs to do a little more to compete with the likes of Catena and Gestos? Need to re-visit in 6 months. From 2011, 15/20
