Moderately complex, surprisingly crushable #mendoza #cabernetsauvignon at one of my favorite wine bar and bites place. — a month ago

Lovely mushroom emerges within a lovely and gracefully aged malbec showing appropriate raisination. Tulip, violet, hibiscus and rosemary-beef; bllackberry and cocoa, cracked pepper. Dense coloration just brimming on brick. Concentrated plum and cinnamon collide with tobacco, cedar and savory as well as slightly sour cherry and roobios.

Terrific #chardonnay from #mendoza . Lemon zest, citrus oil, wet stone aromas. Lemon zest, juicy tartness and a touch of lemon pie buttery crust palate. — 2 years ago

Ya gotta love #mendoza #chardonnay that punches weigh above its weight class. Subtle apple, pear aromas, comes alive on the palate with juicy tart green apple, lemon zest. Crisp texture and not at all weighty. — 6 months ago

Pleasant #sauvignonblanc from #mendoza - lemon verbena, kaffir lime on the nose, delicious mouthwatering tart lemon notes on palate, viscous sensation, crisp finish. Let this one warm up a bit in the glass to enjoy it. #nicewinery — a year ago

Reserve #mendoza #malbec with plenty of personality. Bramble fruit, cassis, faint tobacco and vanilla hints on nose. Taut acidity up front on palate, medium plus body, fruit more shy than the nose would suggest, peppery spice, then leather tobacco progress to grippy tannins on the finish. Those tannins and acidity suggest this wine could easily evolve 5 years or more in the cellar. Brilliant glass paired with Wagyu steak sandwich with chimichurri sauce. — a year ago

Exquisite single vineyard #cabernetfranc from #agrelo #mendoza. Deep well of purple & black berries, graphite, dark cocoa on the nose. Considerable tension on palate offsetting a beam of dark fruit, peppery finish and yes some pleasant red pepper notes towards the finish with soft tannins to close things out on the mouth-smacking finish. — 9 months ago

One more winner from Nice Winery: Softly spiced blackberry and plum nose framed by faint coffee aromas. Proportional acidity and fruit on palate, more pronounced dark chocolate notes, soft tannins on the finish that build over time. #mendoza #cabernetfranc — a year ago

Intense purple-magenta color; black bramble fruit, soft pepper notes on nose. Palate - lush dark fruit wave offset by generous acidity and a pronounced spicy-pepper finish with fine-spun tannins on a prolonged finish. Enchanting high QPR #mendoza #malbec. — 2 years ago
