| MALBEC 2013 Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
VERSADO |
| Extremely deep intense purple colour. Very faintly reedy, spicy, baked plum-cherry nose with some cedary notes. Dry, medium-full bodied, quite well structured, very slightly peppery, savoury, ripe plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, cedary finish. This repeat is similar to the 2013 (**) released on September 27, 2014 at $25.95. |

| TASTING NOTE: The rocks beneath the earth precede the rich, dark fruit. After the berries and the candy beets and the spices subside the flowers grow and take over the room. The vintage brings more layers than before. Malbec of character and belief, even a touch of good VA, a coat that only the Southern Hemisphere can provide. It is not usually present in Mendozan Malbec so it's really a breath of fresh paint here in the Versado. Great purity. Protracted length. Most expansive and intriguing vintage to date ...
