An impressive malbec by its potential. Very concentrated by nature; Full of ripe black cherries and currants,
a little more attractive tha the usual Uco´s malbec. A nice spiciness and chocolaty note. quite ripe and chewy
This malbec harbors a great ageing potential and a better structure than Uco´s standard. Wide in palate and mouth filling like few. This time showing a little bit shortness that I imagine might be related to a young age vineyard. On in on a 90 point malbec that sholud get much more better in 4 to 6 years old. I think its a great value.
