Expert Reviews

89 Points | International Wine Cellar , January/February 2011

Dark red. Laid-back, slightly rustic aromas of currant, chocolate, mocha and leather. Supple and suave but not overly concentrated, with good inner-mouth energy to the flavors of blackberry, chocolate and mint. A rather dry, classic malbec with a savory finish displaying fine tannins and a lingering chocolate note. (The 2006 Durigutti Familia Mendoza was impressively concentrated and sweet but was too high-toned to recommend.)
