La Boca Malbec (Argentina 2006)

Category: Malbec — Eddie @ 7:06 am

	This wine is a Malbec from Argentina. Argentina, with its sinking currency is now finally able to challenge Chilean wine for a corner of the inexpensive wine market in North America. The label has been created to replicate the colorful houses that make up the town of La Boca that is nestled at the foothills of the Andes. We do suggest trying this because for the price it is well worth it.
	$3.00 at Trader Joe’s

Hints of Chocolate and coffee in the aroma The aroma is intense The taste was slightly spicy witha little plum A bit harsher than past vintages Very dry wine with a lot of tannins One dimensional in its flavor and a little boring. This wine is like free tickets to a baseball game between two teams you do not have a vested interest in. Your glad you got them and not upset that you went, but were not overly thrilled while you were there. It was better than sitting around the house all night but not exactly the World Series either.

Love the baseball game analogy, although with this bottle for me it was like getting there and having to sit through the game while it was raining. Even at $3 there is a least one better option at TJ’s right now that I know of in this Chasing Clouds Shiraz.
