Daniel O'Keefe rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

A fresh and ripe Malbec with aromas of black cherry and plum intermingling with cocoa and violet. Nicely structured with bright and food-friendly acidity, robust smooth tannins, and a healthy full body. Dark fruit palate shares the spotlight with restrained espresso and cocoa. Pretty and pleasant, this is a natural pairing for steak and lamb.

Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

An interesting nose with hints of violets, dried raspberries and earth. The palate is smooth with dried cherries and a flash of cola. Nicely balanced with a grippy finish. Meat loaf and burgers all the way! Tasted June 2019. www.thewineloverskitchen.com

Jennifer Havers rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Firing up the BBQ as we speak! Aromas of smoky raspberries, dark cherry, and soft leather. Full bodied and bold, with bright acidity and some firm tannins that soften and mellow with a little time in the glass. Perfect to accompany a marinated flank steak.
