We’ve recently reviewed Tercos’ Bonardo and were pleasantly surprised by what Tercos is doing with this little know variety. So here’s the more traditional offering from Tercos, their 2008 Malbec. For a little more information on this winery and some background on Tercos Malbec, check out our review of the 2007.
With the 2008, Tercos continues to impress with a well-crafted malbec, offering ripe cherry and blackberry along with vanilla, nutmeg and a hint of malt. On the palate the wine serves up ripe cherry and lush, well integrated tannins. So it would seem that Tercos is making some progress with this wine, and judging from the Bonardo, 2008 may have provided more to work with than 2007. Keep a close eye on Tercos.
A Salute!
