Hello Everyone! It’s been a while since I last blogged, so working to get back into it. That doesn’t mean I haven’t been drinking wine, just not writing about it. Sigh. I did try a Cabernet Sauvignon from Argentina a couple of weeks ago. It was the 2013 Terrazas de los Andes single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon. I was excited to try it as hadn’t had an Argentinian wine in a while. Some Argentinian and Chilean wines can include minerality and earthiness. I’m all in on that. I wasn’t all in on this. There is minerality and earthiness and then there is..well..not of this earth. It was skunky and I suspect might not have been stored well. I took a sip but thought letting it breathe a bit would help. It didn’t. I’m not sure this was the wine or perhaps the storage of the wine that did not pull in its favor, it was just poor smell and taste. I also bought a 2014 Terrazas Malbec at the same time, so curious to see how that goes. Both bottles of wine were in the $30 range. I’ll keep you posted on the Malbec.
