The 2019 Malbec Estate Selection from Uco Valley offers precise and attractive notes of fresh, sour cherry, plum and hints of lavender, violet and thyme. On the palate, it is a mix of flavors framed by fine, reactive tannins. Finishes juicy, with well-integrated freshness and fruity flavors. $25.00 (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, October 2021)

Oct 12th, 2021This wine is improving with bottle age and is drinking beautifully now (Feb 2014). Better than even a few months ago. Rich red and black fruits, nice mouthfeel and a smooth finish. Very tasty.
