Third wine to be tasted: A big one, a 4. Uncle Jimmy guessed this to be a Malbec. Uncle Winepath was clueless, as usual, (accusing everything to be a California cab). Rubber-funk, smokey, heavy blueish color. Superb on mid-palate; a complete wine. Jammy, but not fruitty. Lovely. Catena Zapata, 2004 Malbec from Mendoza.
