Patricio Tapia gave this wine a score of 92, describing it as offering \"... white pepper and tense texture ... [and] the ideal structure for lentil stew with bacon and chorizo sausage.\" (Descorchados, 2017) TASTING NOTE: You'd expect someone whose origins are in Bordeaux to make good Cabernet Sauvignon and in the case of Hervé Joyaux, you'd be correct. Combining stainless steel and oak-aged components, it's fresh, elegant and winningly aromatic with fine-grained tannins and black currant leaf notes. Drinking Window: 2018-2024. Score - 91 (Tim Atkin, MW, timatkin.com, Argentina Special Report 2017) |
