Ever since we had the 2005 Linda Flor Malbec, we were under its spell. But, as they say: in vino veritas - in wine, there is truth. The Linda Flor 2017 broke the spell. For us, it did not hold the promise for a potential repeat of the experience of the 2005. There was a green note on the finish and I don’t think the dark fruit underneath the tight but polished fine grained tannins seemed concentrated enough to break through the oak vice grip. Life, wine…. It’s a journey.

2016 is a relatively week vintage for Argentina Malbec but this shows exceptionally well.
Fragrant and layered, the nose shows ripe blackberries, plums, vanilla, nutmeg, touch of tobacco, and hint of dusty violets. Juicy and refined palate with fine balance of fresh acidity and plush fruits. Velvety tannins.
Not very complex and deep, but this has the elegance that I don’t often see with bottles in this price range. Peaking now.

Intense right from opening and first sip. Only gets better after that.

One of my favs. Black licorice and herbs. Good snow day wine❄️ Happy second day of spring😒

Another shitty day deserves one of my favorite wines. I love this Malbec. One of my favs.

Nice diner with Argentina codi, excellent malbec from mendoza

Big bold flavors. Deep rich color with nice fingers. Great with steak or by itself.
