A malbec with muscle showing blackberry, blueberry and stone aromas and flavors. Full body, firm tannins and a fruity finish. Linear and structured. Precise. Apparently this is a new direction for this producer and I like it. Better in 2018.
An excellent effort, the bold and lively 2014 Nieto Senetiner Don Nicanor Barrel Select Malbec stands up the best examples of this grape variety worldwide. The wine's black fruit, currants, and sweet oak stay persistent and delicious on the palate. Pair with the best steak in the house and enjoy. (Tasted: November 16, 2017, San Francisco, CA)
There's also a new 2014 Don Nicanor Barrel Select Malbec, a blend of selected barrels containing wine exclusively from the Valle de Uco, looking for less extraction, more spice, a lighter body and presented in a Burgundy bottle, something that had never been done at Nieto Senetiner before. What I tasted was really impressive, a fresh wine with a note of aniseed and fennel, very fine tannins and a soft, velvety texture, keeping the tension. Another surprise from the new Nieto Senetiner.
