Ratings:
Joaquin Hidalgo writes: The 2021 Malbec Clásico Made with Organic Grapes is 75% from Luján de Cuyo and 25% from the Uco Valley. A mild purple color. The bold aromas feature plum and notes of spice, herbs and mint. On the palate, it has good grip and acidity with a degree of structure and moderate fat. A juicy, flavorful wine. Drinking 2022 - 2028. - Vinous 90
James Suckling writes: This shows notes of cherries and red plums with hints of sweet spices and stone. Medium-bodied and textural with a mineral backbone and vivid red fruit. Dusty tannins and a polished finish. An easy and smooth malbec that shows freshness and poise. Drink now. - James Suckling 91
Amanda Barnes, Dirceu Vianna Junior MW, Madeleine Stenwreth MW write: Remarkably juicy and alluring. Subtle and sophisticated, boasting ripe dark fruits, spices, and dark chocolate. Pure, precise, with excellent concentration, fine tannins, and refreshing energy. - Decanter 91
