After the first few mouthfulls, it tastes quite 'jammy'.

jammy is an excellent description of this wine.
Not that I would put it on my toast, but I might consider dipping my bread in it!
I actually loved this wine, especially the price.... but I suppose it's matter of taste.

Thanks for pointing this out.
Just picked up 4 bottles.
It was the only one on the shelf without a price label. Got an assistant to price-check. She was delighted when it came back as £1.89 and said she'd get some for herself!



EDIT:
Opened the first bottle and the cork crumbled like sawdust. The wine's definitely past its best. Oh well, it'll be nice in a stew...


EDIT 2:
Opened the 2nd bottle and this one was much better - no crumbly corks and spoiled wine! This was soft and plummy, just as one would expect an argentinian Malbec to be! Went done really well with a plate of chilli noodles at lunch. Yum!
