For me the best producer in Mendoza, a great Malbec, great acidity, very fine tannins, gravelly.

glass-staining garnet color with lifted aromas of black fruit, espresso, violet, dried orange peel and subtle oak. High acidity that is beautifully balanced with the fruit. Lovely, very vibrant link

Pretty deep , almost opaque , thin rim . Quite wild , dried herbs , touch of rounded red fruits . More fruit on the palate , quite ripe red fruits , quite soft but fine , nice balanced acidity . Slightly warm. Quite good length though quite dry finish . Nice now , wouldn’t want to leave this too much longer however .

A wonderful bouquet of blue and black fruit ranging from cassis and blackberries to blueberries and sandalwood. A touch floral and savory on the palate from violets and thyme to add to to the bushel of fruit, lovely malbec!

A big wine that can benefit from more years of cellaring. Espresso and chocolate bites, high acidity and from tanins yet quite elegant

A bit of cherry and some vegetal bit not a lot. Taste reflects this and it has some acidity.
