  Tasting at winestore Bichel - only my scores over 90 points (Klampenborg): No notes taken. Surprised I liked it, but I did

  Had I tasted blind I never would’ve taken this for Malbec. It had none of the sharp alcohol edge of what I think of as typical. This was heavy on cherry blackberry and cassis, with bramble florals and a solid though not bracing tannic spine. After about an hour some Cahors typicity showed up - wood, a little pepper, cassis. But this had none of the rustic tannins of usual Cahors. Really an eye opener as to what Malbec can do. Not the most complex tastes, but definitely refined and very, very satisfying.
  Score: 92. Relative to expectations: +
