All
wines tasted at the party held for baby Thomas on 25/08/2012. Less favoured to above Gouguenheim.
Widely available about £8 UK retail. From my Blog: ‘My guess is this is a blend for the international market; according
to the bottle based on two of their vineyards. I think the 'reserve'
appellation comes from selected plots rather than barrel age. Anyway, it is
clear, medium purple colour with a good nose of plum and strawberry. Tannins
are soft. There's a rather short finish and I would have preferred a bit more
grip with firmer tannins. Good value for money, nonetheless, if you like your
Malbec soft-ish and for early drinking. 15/20, drink now’.
