Casa La Joya Reserve
Malbec 2007
750 ml - $15
(oooh) %14 alc./vol
Heralding from the 'Napa Valley' of Chile. It is a region known as the Colchagua Valley, ...it is from here, where mighty cool sea breezes provide a unique mesoclimate, offering the finest in Chilean wine for me to discuss with you tonight.
Let me be the first to tell you that this may not be one of the finest of Chilean wines, but it is indeed very very very good.
Upon decanting this dark dry number, and sniffing at it repeatedly, I was reckoned with a nose full of boozy boozy alcohol. To my surprise it quickly transforms in the mouth to be a very swallowable tasty taste.
Soon into enjoying a or glass or two, my face progessed to a rich, red, hot, glowing, heat-source ...suggesting that I may have a mild weakness to an allergy from alcohol. I had some spaghetti too.
opening the rating spectrum to 10 this evening, I'll give it a 5.
cheers ...
