| TASTING NOTE: A blend of vineyards in Uco and Luján de Cuyo, there's 70% malbec, 20% bonarda, and 10% syrah in this wine. The style has changed from its first vintage in 2005, and now, instead of voluptuousness and ripeness, it's focused on linearity, freshness, and underscoring its red fruit through less oak and earlier harvests. This is delicious red fruit juice with herbs and an accent on the acidity and its firm, fierce tannins. Score - 91 (Patricio Tapia, Descorchados, 2018) |
