TASTING NOTE: This Malbec is the first wine Lui produced (in 2002) after finishing his studies at the university. It is always made with grapes from the same vineyard in Vista Flores and produced in a fruit-driven and approachable way, with only half of the volume matured in well-seasoned barriques. The 2018 Malbec Reserva has a combination of flowers and wild berries, with just a spicy twist. It has a juicy palate with round tannins, very good balance and freshness, with the oak really integrated. Drink date: 2019-2021. Score - 91 (Luis Gutiérrez, robertparker.com, Oct. 31, 2019) Price $ 19.95
Bottle Size 750 mL
Tasting Date vintages release - May 29, 2021
