| TASTING NOTE: A big, almost full-bodied style but opens with subtle, elegant notes of dried violet, thyme and dried orange peel that give way to a powerful, concentrated, structured core built around berry and plum flavors. There's still Malbec's hallmark velvety texture, but it is a contrast to the wave of chalky minerality. Finishes with glints of cassis and fig around structured tannins. Hands off for now. Best from 2027 through 2040. Ranked #76 in Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines of 2025. [Decant for 60-90 minutes to enjoy this evening.] Score - 95 (Aaron Romano, winespectator.com, Nov. 30, 2025) |
