TASTING NOTE: The 2016 Sapo de Otro Pozo is a blend of Malbec with 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Syrah from different vineyards in the Valle de Uco, fermented in different vessels. Half of the wine aged in new French barriques. There is a bit more influence from the oak here, combining smoky and spicy aromas with notes of aromatic herbs, wild berries and flowers. It has a round palate with moderate acidity and some more tannins. It might require more time in bottle and/or powerful food. Drink date: 2018-2022. Score - 93 (Luis Gutiérrez, robertparker.com, June 29, 2018) |
