Friday, January 12, 2018 - I am usually a big fan of Argentine Malbecs. The blurb at my wine shop said something like "James Suckling 92", so I took the bait and bought at $18. This was really disappointing. The wine had an overwhelming bitterness, which is a huge defect in my opinion. The bitterness overshadowed any positive feature that this wine might have had. The Maipe Malbec Reserve from '09 and '12 at $13, and the "regular" Alamos Malbec from various years for $8- $12 have been far better.
