2004 Terrazas Malbec Reserva

This is a biased post.

I am going to tell you I love the 2004 Terrazas Malbec Reserve because of the fact that it is has a deep, intense oaky fruitiness that lasts for maybe 10 seconds after the wine has left your mouth.  I'll tell you that it only costs about $13 in retail shops as another reason for my love of this wine. 

But the reality is that every time I drink it, I am reminded of an amazing trip to Argentina last year where we took a tour of the Terrazas vineyard and watched the guys pluck grapes from the vines during the harvest in February.   I also think about the fact that the wine cost only a few dollars down there, and we drank it while in an airport cafe waiting for a plane. Those were the days.   

I served this wine at our last foodie with pork.  We also enjoyed it over Easter with a rich lasagna.  Track this one down for an everyday, affordable wine that delivers a big bang for the buck.  Find it here.
