You don’t need an image on this one, because I am not going to recommend you buy it. I opened this bottle last night. The 2008 La Finca Malbec one of those cheap wines you can find at Trader Joe’s. I enjoy Malbecs, so I thought why not – I can’t keep up with drinking the $40 bottles all the time anyways. I used to drink cheap wines all the time so I thought it wouldn’t be a problem to go right back to it.
Wrong-O! Now I know why there are price differences in wine. I have been drinking a lot of reserves and a lot from our stash we brought home from Paso Robles. I guess I have been spoiled. This wine was alright, but not exciting at all. It really did taste just like a cheap bottle of wine. The clear observance of this is that Steve and I didn’t even finish the bottle – we came close – but didn’t feel like finishing it – and that just doesn’t happen folks!
1.5 – 2 stars
