Gascón Malbec Mendoza Argentina 2009

Post by Low-N-Slow »

Yep, there's a glut of cheap Argentine Malbec since it's been declared the latest hip, red, southern hemisphere varietal. The Gascón has plenty of blue and black berry fruit, along with a subtle herbaceous quality, and some reasonably well-integrated, chocolate-y tannins for such a young red. $9 on sale at Dorignac's.
