I feel I was victimized by an overly confident sales staff at a normally reliable wine retailer. This was self-proclaimed "THE Malbec". Well I can assure you that for $20 I can purchase a few bottles of cabernet, zinfandel, or pinot noir that would make this look like dish water. I was not impressed! The body was velvety that was indeed its best feature. The wine lacked ANY character and had an exceptionally subtle finish. I compared it to a $5 bottle of Merlot that I dislike as a whole. To say the least I did not expect to be so disappointed when I had heard nothing but good things from this wine. If this wine was priced at $9 for a magnum, I would still stick Barefoot or Glen Ellen anyday! Meanwhile, I'll stick to Napa Valley quality for over $20 at 750ml. |
