This 2008 Malbec was reccomended to me by a wine department manager in Portland, OR. The nose lacked the more distinct aroma common to a nice bottle of Malbec. The color was rich. The Viu Manent had hints of blackberry, boysenberry, and rasberry with a taste of chocolate and mocha on the finish. The taste in the mouth was nice but not enduring. Perhaps a couple of years cellared would enhance this wine. I found it adequate for an everyday bottle of Malbec but not one to highly reccomend to a friend.
