Tomero Malbec 2010, a striking Malbec expressing a balanced Mendoza

Tomero Malbec 2010, By Tomero Wines (Carlos Pulenta wines), USD 12



The winery locate the grapes source to Uco´s Valley but the winery itself is located in Vistalba Ditrict of Lujan de Cuyo Departament in central mendoza about 70 miles north.
The wine is striking in several ways; Ripe and pure fruits, mostly black cherries typical from Uco´s and a boysenberry and red cherry toach that reminds a more central mendoza expression (lets say Vistalba). Good chocolaty note. It shows more balance than an Uco´s only malbec, and more attractiveness than a central mendoza. It cptures almost all the beauty a mendoza´s Malbec with nice acidity and alcohol. The palate is pretty smooth all along.


A 90 points Malbec, great value and beautiful to enjoy plenty young and fresh straigh during the first 4 years of age. No doubt one of the best 10 under 12 bucks. 

Compare the 2008 & 2009 vintages and this steps an edge ahead from them.
