TASTING NOTE: The 2017 Tonel 78 Barrel Select isn't as closed as the 2016 I tasted last time. It is terribly balanced, very pure and integrated and more insinuating than in-your-face. This is a superb blend of Malbec and 35% Bonarda with lots of character and very good freshness. 25,000 bottles produced. Drink date: 2019-2022. Score - 93 (Luis Gutiérrez, robertparker.com, Oct. 31, 2019) Price $ 20.95
Bottle Size 750 mL
Tasting Date vintages release - March 6, 2021
