Tim Atkin's Argentina Special Report 2017 awarded this wine a score of 92. TASTING NOTE: A lavish, powerful Malbec full of baked cherry fruit, spice and a floral touch. There is some toast crust to go with the big, rather extractive fruit, but there is a definite freshness here too. Drinking Window 2017-2024. Score - 92 (decanter.com, Oct. 1, 2017) |
