TASTING NOTE: This is a vibrantly fresh and crisp interpretation of malbec from the heights of the Uco Valley. Rather than impressing with super concentration and barrel notes, it excels in its purity, the focus on fruit, delicate and multihued. Score - 92 (wineandspiritsmagazine.com, Feb. 2015) Price $ 17.95
