A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: This wonderful Malbec comes from a stony, limestone-influenced block and was fermented with 50% whole bunches in 2016 because of its riper stems. Grippy, saline and refreshing, with some white pepper spice, succulent berry fruit and a lovely bite of acidity. Drink date: 2020-28. Score - 95 (Tim Atkin, MW, timatkin.com, Argentina Special Report 2018) |
