Hacienda del Plata Zagal Malbec


Name: Hacienda del Plata Zagal Malbec
Variety: Malbec
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2004
Price: $14.95

Winery review: Organic. Our favorite wine, the 2004 Zagal from Hacienda del Plata was also our best value, dense and fruity yet well balanced and structured, avoiding the too common pitfalls of sweetness and flabbiness. Hacienda del Plata is a fairly new winery, one we were unfamiliar with but the rest of our top five compromised fairly well-known Argentine names. Screams out for grilled beef.

My review: This was dry and strong. I could also get a lot of tannins. I kinda liked it.

I tasted it without food.
