Inconsistent with recent tastings of the same vintage. Maybe ease off for a while.

Dec 20th, 2020Proof that every bottle, same vintage will be different. Last time I had this a few weeks ago I gave it a 9.1, thi time I’m being generous with a 8.8.

Aug 10th, 2020Bold and fantastic as always. A dark fruit and sweet vanilla in nose. A leather, tobacco, earthy notes on the palate. And still excellent value for money.

Deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruits and rustic floral spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and sour currants with notes of cacao and tobacco. Rustic dusty tannins, medium finish ending with berry and herb notes. Just ok, drink now for best taste.

Deep red purple in the glass with an opaque core. Inviting nose of blackberry compote. Full-bodied palate of blackberry, black plum, and cocoa covered black cherry. Medium acidity. Medium tannins. Medium long finish. A New World Malbec that could match Old World dishes. Ready for burgers, prime rib, and all in between. Drink now through 2024.

Mascota Vineyards – Unánime Malbec 2021
Mendoza – Argentina 🇦🇷
Overview
From high-elevation vineyards in Mendoza, this Malbec captures the richness of the region’s mountain terroir. Mascota Vineyards is known for crafting bold yet approachable wines, and this vintage stays true to that style.
Aromas & Flavors
A medley of blackberry, blueberry, and dark plum layered with hints of cocoa and spice.
Mouthfeel
Medium-plus tannins give it grip, while the ripe fruit and solid structure make it rich and satisfying without being overly heavy.
Food Pairings
Grilled steak (the Argentine classic), BBQ ribs, roasted lamb, or even hard cheeses like aged Manchego or Gouda.
Verdict
A solid, fruit-forward Malbec that delivers the richness and dark fruit character Mendoza is famous for. Reliable and enjoyable — a hearty red that doesn’t disappoint. Cheers!
