It seems I had a Malbec here in China that should have retailed around
6-8USD here that had some good character. Of course, after the mark-
up, it was a little more than 10USD. I think it was a lower end
Bodega Salentein wine; maybe their Finca el Portillo 02 or 03. Really
plumy/jammy and good to eat with Chinese food, I thought.
