DESCRIPTION
James Suckling This shows plums, bark and charcoal on the nose. The palate is precise, sharp, linear and super elegant, with velvety tannins and crunchy fruit. It’s long, refined and very stylish.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate The 2023 Old Vine Malbec combines ungrafted vines from six Uco Valley growers who previously sold grapes for use in bulk wines. It was destemmed and fermented in stainless tank before maturing for 12 months in 35% new barrique. Opening with a pleasant nose of red and blue fruits, anise and dried spices, the palate is plush and straightforward, concluding with a lifted, fragrant finish.
Wine Enthusiast The nose reveals enticing aromas of crushed berries leading the way to a juicy palate filled with rich dark fruit flavors and a hint of rosemary. Framed by gripping tannins and vibrant acidity, this full-bodied Malbec features a distinctive chalky texture and a long lasting finish.
Wine Spectator Hints of roasted herbs and loam lead but quickly give way to the core flavors of Santa Rosa plum and cherry, culminating with crunchy acidity, mineral and cocoa powder notes that fill out the structured finish.
