Argentine Malbec Issue (October 2009 Special Issue)
WineBlueBook (formerly QPRwines) is a wine buying guide that compares wine ratings and price to determine value. This Special Summary Issue covers Argentine Malbec wines. Argentine Malbec has garnered much wine critic attention in the recent years to allow WineBlueBook to collect enough statistical data (scores and available wines in the US market) to add Argentine Malbec to our list of 19 wine varietals covered. We developed the "Average Price per Score" from recent vintages (2004-2008) from wines scored by at least two of the major wine critics and available for sale in the US. The point spread of the "Average Price per Score" is close, between the $13 average price for an 83 average score to $15 for an 87 point average scored Argentine Malbec. This means that an extra $2 will buy you a wine that scored four more points. And the point spread is also close with only a $2 difference between a 90 point Malbec (at $25) and a 91 point Malbec (at $27). Overall Malbec is a great value red wine value. For $27, you can purchase a 91 rated Malbec or for roughly the same amount of money, you can buy the following red wines:
At the high scoring end, the 2006 Renacer, Malbec Mendoza Punto Final Reserva received an average score of 92 points and at $15 is 38% of the average cost of a similar scoring Argentine Malbec, earning it a Great Value moniker. The 2002 Kaiken, Malbec Mendoza received an average score of 90 and at $12 is 48% of the average $25 cost of a similar scoring Argentine Malbec. At the value end, at $9, the 2008 O. Fournier, Malbec Mendoza Urban Uco Valle de Uco received an average score of 89 points and is 45% of the average $20 cost of a similar scoring Argentine Malbec. A total of 522 Argentine Malbec wines are profiled in this issue.
