Wine Enthusiast features Finca Decero 2017 Remolinos Vineyard Malbec as one of the best Malbecs under $30. The article gives some riveting history of the quintessential big, red grape that has become symbolic of wine from Argentina. Interestingly, the variety was originally referred to as “black wine” or “Cot” in its native region of Cahors in Southwest France where it has been cultivated since the 16th century. Since then, the now widely familiar grape has spread across the world from Bordeaux to the United States, and of course, Argentina
The full review for the Finca Decero 2017 Remolinos Vineyard Malbec (91 Points) states the wine is “jammy blackberry and cassis aromas are ripe and include an exotic note of cardamom. A healthy palate is structured in layers, while the acidity on this Malbec registers on the low side, which brings richness to the fore. Flavors of blackberry, dark plum, baking spices and chocolate are steady on a focused finish.”
