| TASTING NOTE: I love the licorice and dried berry character with hints of wet earth. Medium body, fine tannins and a bright finish. A classic producer from Mendoza that makes refined wines. Aged for three years in French oak. Drink now. Score - 93 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, May 31, 2015) |
