91(+?) Points | International Wine Cellar , January/February 2010

($28; this went through its malolactic fermentation in French barriques Bright ruby-red. Subdued but pure aromas of dark berries, smoke and licorice. Then suave, silky and seamless on the palate, with lovely inner-mouth perfume to the black raspberry and smoke flavors. In a rather restrained and subtly complex style, with no easy sweetness showing today. Finishes with plenty of grip and flavor intensity. Give this urbane malbec at least a year or two in the cellar.
