TASTING NOTE: I had the chance to visit the winery while in Mendoza. If I liked the 2012, the 2013 Guarda Selección de Viñedos Malbec DOC was even better. Focused and pure, the nose is full of violets and red berries with unnoticeable oak. The palate is framed by very fine tannins and great acidity. This lively Malbec is delicious and should do wonders with food. Drink Date: 2015-2019. Score - 92+ (Luis Gutierrez, robertparker.com, Aug. 27, 2015) |
