TASTING NOTE: Serious, dense and plummy, this sensuous, richly textured Malbec is a classic Luján de Cuyo style, with lots of ripe bramble and blueberry fruit, an overlay of toasty oak, fine tannins and a sweet, supple finish. Always a very drinkable wine, even young. Drink Date: 2018-2024. Score - 93 (Tim Atkin, MW, timatkin.com, Argentina Special Report 2017) |
