TASTING NOTE: Grown on stony soils in Cruz de Piedra, this is a ripe, yet refreshing style of Malbec, with quite a bit of smoky oak, but plenty of underlying structure. Textured bramble, liquorice and tobacco flavours are supported by crunchy acidity. 2017-23. Score - 91 (Tim Atkin, MW, timatkin.com, Argentina Special Report 2017) |
