This classy high-altitude Malbec boasts fully ripe, nuanced aromas and flavors of dark berries, minerals, mocha, bitter chocolate, pepper and menthol. Wonderfully pliant and refined, it displays subtle inner-mouth lift and restrained sweetness and a suavely tannic, slowly rising finish. (Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, June 2018)

I like this Malbec. It provides the robust, mineral and spicy notes you expect from the high altitude vineyards in Argentina, but it’s balanced with ripe fruit and a smooth short to medium finish.

Dark garnet/purple to edges of glass with a strong nose of black plum with maybe black cherry too with hints of some wet earth. Medium+ body with a slight jammy feel in the mouth. Medium acidity and clear tannins & dryness at the end. Red plum with some chalkiness. Pretty good and probably better with more air & food.
