Bella Mcdowell rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Spicy nose with dark berries. Tastes of blackberry, plum, dark chocolate with a smooth, spicy finish. Very interesting wine that makes you want to come back for another sip...and of course I always do!


Natalie's Review

Layer Cake Malbec 2009, Mendoza, Argentina: Vintages Wine Panel: Layer Cake is, in part, a tribute to winemaker Jayson Woodbridge’s grandfather who said that when it’s properly made, wine “is like a great layer cake.” Granddad would certainly have approved of this complex and layered offering. Coffee, blackberry, plum and spice aromas abound. Dry, with black fruit, spice, mocha and raspberry tones, nicely integrated medium tannins, a creamy mid-palate and good fruit on the medium-long finish. Offer your guests a slice. My note: Mocha dark chocolate melts into plush plums and fleshy blackberries. Some espresso and vanilla smoke on the finish. Drink: 2009-2014.  219287  14.90%  XD  750 mL  $21.95  Score: 90/100.
