Cafayate High Altitude Grand Reserve Malbec

Color of inky and pure purple, a bit gray tone and nice legs. Nose of ripe dark fruits, blackberries, ripe grapes, currant, a but spicy, and some more plum and strawberry note. A bit hint of oak too. Nose is decent. Taste follows the nose with addition of tobacco leaves, refined tannins, refined sweetness paired with refreshing acidity. A bit minty and zesty note too. Quite silky and nice. Aftertaste is medium long with a good repeat of all the notes. Nicely done.

Decent Malbec, neither offensive nor remarkable

More aromatic than tasty. A balanced Malbec

Tried at vineyard; direct comparison w young Cafayate Malbec (also excellent), young Mendoza Malbec ( good but no as), and Cafayate Cab. Sauvignon (ok)

Another decent Argentina Malbec. Grapes from the Andes mountains

Nice Malbec but can’t keep up with Whitehall’s Malbec

Spicy cinnamon, strongly astringent, deep dark purple, dark cherry. Not your typical Malbec.

My personal favorite Malbec.

Corked

Fruity and delish with an asado. this is a high altitude Malbec from Cafayate, purchased at Vineyard.
