Argentinean Wine Tasting Episode #765

Come back with a more realistic review once you come back from Argentina in March.

Yeah, I agree with danroc - what, Gary doesn't have a second bottle of that wine around? He made it sound like you should write the wine off just because one bottle was slightly corked - not a good explanation of what "corked" is. And, well, his choice of the other Malbec, anyone down here could have told him that... not a good choice, bottom of the barrel commercial stuff. And Pinot from Mendoza, Bosca or not? Nah, try Pinot from Patagonia if you want an area with the right climate.

Fortunately, Argentina is more than 3 bottles... and for a corked wine, I always give a second chance. Don't you think so?

ehhh Luigi

little bit of you in me, we're changin' the wine world

Great Show. I bought a case of 2000 Trapiche Malbec, it was absolutely great the first 3 years (light, a bit green), terrible in the middle (acidic), but the last 3 years have been fantastic, it just opened up, the green was gone, really good wine (I drank the last bottle 1/2 year ago). It was $12 a bottle back then, great value in my opinion.

LA ISLO BONITA!!!! Perfect for Argentina!!!!

Honest reviews - thanks! i actually want to try that pinot :)
btw, can you also read the alcohol content on the wines to us? i like to know especially for cabs, but also for wines in general.
favorite Madonna song? always liked Vogue!
