Don Muigel 2010 Gascon Malbec Rating: Robert Parker: 89 Points Since 1884, the wines of Don Miguel Gascón have been recognized for the rich, smooth flavors that come from Argentina's Mendoza wine region. High altitude vineyards situated along the Cordillera of the Andes Mountains produce full mature grapes for this classic Malbec. Don Miguel Gascon sailed to Argentina from Aragon, Spain, at the age of 19 years, without a penny to his name. Four years later, the ingenious Don Miguel managed to buy 42 acres of land, plant vineyards and build a winery. Today the winery is owned by the Nicholas Catena family.
The 2010 Don Miguel Gascon Malbec delivers plenty of bang for the buck. It was aged for 7 months in French and American oak and offers up a pleasing perfume of cedar, spice box, brier, black cherry, and red licorice. This sets the stage for a medium-bodied, savory, nicely proportioned Malbec with excellent depth and length. This tasty effort is an excellent value meant for drinking over the next 3-4 years.
