RATINGS

95Decanter Magazine (points)

Herbs and dried flowers, lemon verbena, hops and malt. Fine-grained tannins and oak well tempered with time; distinctive and memorable... Inviting aromas of blueberries, blackberries, cherries, dark chocolate and sweet spices. Oozes class... Beautiful ripe lush fruit, dried fig and spice in a dense and compact style, with freshness and crunchy, dusty attractiveness on the finish.

93The Wine Advocate

...floral and explosive...has ripeness and notable acidity...varietal character, tons of violets and raspberries and a somewhat wild character. It's medium to full-bodied, with very fine tannins and a dry, chalky finish. It's super tasty!

93Wine Spectator

Lively, finely textured dried raspberry and brambly flavors show hints of rooibos tea...unctuously ripe midpalate, with a long finish that offers wet sandstone accents.

91James Suckling

...wet river-pebble aromas, reminiscent of petrichor and intermingled with super ripe dark plums and blackcurrants. The tannins are really languid and ripe, carrying plum-cake flavors into a soft, wilting finish.

16Jancis Robinson

Rich and voluptuous on the nose. Real tension and liquorice notes. Polished finish.

REGION

Argentina, Mendoza (Cuyo)

Mendoza on the western edge of Argentina is the nation’s largest and most important wine producing region. With about a billion acres under vine, the region of Mendoza alone has nearly half as many vineyards acres as all of the United States. Located on the edge of the Andes, vineyards here are high, usually 2,000 to 3,600 feet above sea level, yet they enjoy a relatively temperate climate and four distinct seasons. The soil is sandy and alluvial with clay underneath and moderate rainfall encourages growth. Historically Argentina, and Mendoza, grew pink skin grapes for slightly sweet pink or white wines. Those grapes are still grown for bulk jug wine. Since the late 1980s, however, Malbec has been Mendoza’s most important grape, since it makes a rich, dark, robust, age-worth red. The second most important red grape is Bonarda, which is thought to be the same grape that California growers know as Charbono. Italian and Spanish red grapes including Sangiovese, Barbera and Tempranillo were brought by immigrants, and they are grown today. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Torrontés and numerous other red and white grapes are also grown successfully.

TYPE

Red Wine, Malbec

This grape produces a dark red wine with plenty of tannins. It is one of the six grapes allowed for blending red Bordeaux wines. Malbec is also the flagship variety of Argentina. The grape needs a lot of sun and heat to mature. It adds complexity and intensity to blends.
