A great malbec ,complete and seductive. Strong backbone typical of those high quality Tupungato wines with black cherries and currants, boysenberries, all with a beautiful new oak envelope like vanilla,coffee, hits of mint,sage and eucaliptus. Lasting remains on the palate. Absolutely balanced and keeping a great attractivess. A malbec to satisfy everyone (which ,say,its not hard to get by most Malbecs) , now for those who like young yet easy to love, with strong and fruit driven backbone ,and 6 to 8 years for those who like it aged and more complex. I feel some bottles may arrive at 8 years old quite well. A 93 point malbec now that might reach 94-95 next 2 to 4 years. A great great value no doubt.
This is one of those high quality malbecs probably hard to drink very young (lets say before 4 y/o) and reaching a great balance and attractiveness approaching 8 y/o .
