Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Fantastic, full bodied Argentinian Malbec. Luscious, smooth, silky mouthfeel followed by a rush of big tannins, juicy berry, ripe plum and slightly aged wood. Pairs well with aged cheese, roasted meats, steaks, BBQ ribs. Exceptional value. Tasted 2015 vintage in April 2019. 92 points
Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Rich aromas of mocha, blueberry, blackberry, smoke, spice, and leather. Dry, bright acidity, bright fruit, and lots of mocha and leather on the finish. Enjoy with grilled, marinated steak.
