Tesco, The Finest Malbec, Mendoza, Argentina, 2018
89
Tasted by:
(at Tesco Summer tasting, London, 10 Apr 2019)
Drinking Window: 2019 - 2022
Made by Argentina's Catena family, this smooth, supple red is exactly what people expect from Malbec: dark, ripe berry fruit, warm pepper and vanilla spice and gentle grip from short ageing in French and American oak barrels. Tesco's Finest Angelica Sur Malbec (£18) is a finer wine, but this is far better value.
