Agua de Piedra, Mendoza, Argentina 2007 - Malbec


It looks like I am on Malbec roll these days, and this one has been the best one yet. Agua de Piedra is about an 11 USD bottle; great value. The texture rather silky and the color is on the lighter side for a Malbec. On the nose I got blackberry, salt, fresh cut grass and pepper. The view beyond the bottle by the way is the Hudson River Valley north of NYC.

On the taste this Malbec has some red plum, cranberry, and a hint of apple. It is slightly bitter on the aftertaste which is long lasting. Definitely worth its money and it actually surpasses many Malbecs that are even twice its price.
