The Wine Advocate 85 pts - Jay Miller
The unoaked 2008 Malbec displays a nose of spice box and black cherry followed by a medium-bodied, tasty wine with a solid core of fruit and no hard edges. Drink this friendly effort over the next 3 years.

Wine Spectator 84 pts - James Molesworth
Fresh and forward, with medium-weight grape and mixed berry fruit backed by a toasty finish. Drink now. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 186,000 cases made.

Wine Enthusiast 86 pts - Michael Schachner
Sweet, intriguing aromas of orange peel, spearmint and boysenberry jam give this individuality, while the flush palate serves up soft but ripe plum and berry flavors. Uncomplicated, with weight and adequate freshness.

Description:
The climate at these altitudes is characterized by warm days and cool nights. This allows the grapes to mature slowly towards perfect ripeness, providing deep color, intense aromas and rich flavors. This fresh and fruity wine invites you to discover the unique characteristics of its grape variety.
