This appellation series of Alto de Las Hormigas are really nice! This Malbec is a classical and well reached Malbec, lot of black fruits and soft tannins...

16.5/20 (90/100) В аромате много тонов кожи, дополненных нотами вяленой вишни, чернослива, ментола и лакрицы. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и мягкими танинами. Кофейная горчинка во вкусе.

I don't drink and/or chase Malbec. This I would. It's a good wine, not a sit on your head Malbec. 3900 foot elevation vineyard.

Next up in my reviews of 95 point rated wines. This Malbec is certainly a nice wine but I felt the nose was a bit lacking. A touch oak heavy. Nice finish. Certainly not 95 though. Parker himself is quoted to have been buying this for his cellar. I'm willing to bet there are better malbecs for the price. Mediocre #QPR

So delicious, I'm melting in my chair. Mmm. Slight fruit and strong tobacco smell, good legs, dark ruby colour, full bodied taste. A definite drink again, my dad would love it
