"Luigi Bosca, a large winery in the Luján de Cuyo region, makes at least 25 wines; I know, because that's how many I tasted during a winery visit! Its best wines are its premium line, Finca Los Nobles. Bosca's two most expensive Finca Los Nobles wines, one a Malbec-Petite Verdot blend and the other Cabernet-Bouschet, are both quite fine, but are in the $65 to $75 price range. Its '03 Gala 1, a blend of 85 percent Malbec, 10 percent Petite Verdot, and 5 percent Tannat, is just as good if not better--at half the price. It has deep, complex aromas of baked fruit and dry, firm tannins, with lots of grip and substance. Worth the price. 92 Ed McCarthy Nov 22, 2005"
