Dominio del Plata (Susana Balbo)
Signature Valle De Uco Malbec
This vibrant Malbec from high-altitude vines shows terrific varietal intensity and chalky mineral lift to its black cherry and dark chocolate flavors. Offering exceptional inner-mouth tension for Malbec in its relatively gentle price range, it’s delicious already thanks to its suave tannins. $24.00 (Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, June 2019)

Jul 2nd, 2015NOSE: wood ash, cherry, earthworm, moldy books. Ehhh.
TASTE: actually pretty good. Blackberry, cherry, wood ash tannin, balancing acidity. Not as good as I’d hoped, but got it on closeout. 89.

Inky black Malbec. Licorice and tobacco notes. Very earthy “dirty” sniff. Very dry.

Mar 5th, 2023Dry but full bodied and lovely smooth notes of black cherry and black plums. Proper boozy at 14.5%
