| This is the eighth release in Vintages. After the previous challenging 2015, this 2018 Mendoza 100% Malbec promises to be the best ever! Extremely deep intense purple colour, the attractive nose shows lots of spicy, juicy, ripe, plum-cherry-cassis fruit with some cedar-licorice-sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, harmonious and slightly spicy with ripe, vibrant, plum-cherry-cassis flavours and a lingering, crisp, somewhat cedary finish. Has 13.5% alcohol and 4 g/L residual sugar with lot number L-K442 and 1-21021 on the on the back label. Half of the wine spent 10 months in barrels (15% new), the balance was aged in stainless steel tanks. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Paulucci in a very good year. This malbec offers juicy notes of cherries and spices, but most of all, it has lots of red fruits in every direction. Half of the wine spent 10 months in barrels (15% new), and the rest was aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruit. And that half is in command in this wine with great vigor and brilliance. One of those that's hard to stop drinking. From a vineyard planted in Ugarteche 44 years ago. Score - 93 (Patricio Tapia, guiadescorchados.cl, 2020) |
