WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
This fresh young Malbec is packed with juicy red fruit and well-integrated soft round tannins.
Blend: 85% Malbec, 10% Tannat, 5% Petit Verdot
TASTING NOTES:
Opulent and inviting aromatics, with pretty rose petal, heady sandalwood and plush blueberry on the nose, while the palate is laced with lush plum, a zippy acidity and velvety smooth tannins.
– Decanter, 95 pts.
Violets, fresh blackberries and blueberries and white pepper. A little herbal but savory on the palate with dense, nicely chewy tannins.
– James Suckling, 91 pts.
The dark red 2021 Malbec is young, primary and fresh, with ripe fruit and nice balance. It is varietal and has notes of violets and small berries and a touch of herbs. It’s medium-bodied with medium ripeness and moderate alcohol, 13.9%. In reality, it’s not 100% Malbec, as it contains 10% Tannat and 5% Petit Verdot. A serious red for very little money.
– Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, 90 pts.
