Bodegas Escorihuela 2002 High Altitude Cabernet Sauvignon-Malbec (Mendoza)

Best Buy

Good as it is on its own, Malbec only gets better when blended with Cabernet, as it is here, in a 2:1 proportion. This wine explodes with spice and tight, tart fruit. Berries, currants and cherries highlight the full, round mid-palate, leading confidently into a finish folded in cocoa and toast. Clean, elegant and stylish, it carries none of the mushroom or funk flavors that often come with inexpensive Argentine reds. Part of the Escorihuela Group, who also make the One Bunch and Gascón wines. Paul Gregutt
