Medium-bodied, forward, and loaded with sweet, vibrant, black cherries, plums, and a hint of espresso. The round, creamy wine finishes with more of those sweet, dark, red pit fruits, with a hint of chocolate on the backend. Drink from 2026-2037. 89-91 Pts.

Deep, floral and fruity, the spicy, black plums are sweet, lush and round. There is an edge of salty, cocoa, and espresso on top of the dark cherries in the finish, giving the wine lift and character. Drink from 2025-2038. 91-93 Pts.

Soft, supple, creamy and sweet, with a touch of savory herbs on the back end, you also find plenty of black raspberries, olives, cherries and coffee bean to keep you busy. This is going to be easy to enjoy in its youth, yet it should age easily for 10-12 years as well. Drink from 2023-2037.

Black raspberries, flowers, licorice and espresso crowd the perfume. Medium-bodied, soft, fresh and fruity, with a ripe, black cherry, cocoa, licorice and blackberry character, this polished wine is going to be easy to enjoy in its youth, yet it should age for 12-15 years as well. 91-93 Pts

Meaty, chewy, rich and fleshy, the wine offers a big blast of dark, spicy fruits, espresso, cocoa, black plums and cherries with a salty edge in the finish. This is best thought of as rustically charming. Drink from 2025-2040.

Dark in color and fruit, the wine is ripe, lush and concentrated with a meaty, savory character. There is length, rocks, stones, assorted herbs, licorice, smoke and a rustic charm in the finish. Let this age for 6 years or so, and it will be a lot of fun to drink. As it is made from close to 100% Malbec old vines, it is a cool wine to bring to a blind tasting. 91-93 Pts

Blackberries, plums, cherries, cocoa, espresso and allspice notes create the perfume. Plush and polished with ample richness and silky tannins, and a dark cocoa infused, plummy finish. This is a fabulous wine with concentration and character that can be enjoyed in its youth or aged and it sells for a fair price. Drink from 2023-2034.

Dark in color, with equally dark fruits, and even darker chocolate all over the place, the lushly textured, round wine serves up a lot of fleshy juice. Lush, round, dark, juicy, ripe, sweet, fleshy cherries surrounded by licorice and chocolate in a forward style, and for a fair price! You can drink this young. 89-91 Pts

Silky, lush, round and rich, with layers of ripe, deep, sweet red and black pit fruits and licorice that keeps on going. This hedonistic, well-priced gem will be delicious on release and offer pleasure for at least a decade. 89-91 Pts

Dark in color, the wine is earthy, spicy, rich, lusciously textured and character driven. Mouth coating, long, fresh, full-bodied and fully packed with peppery, deep red fruits, this is one of the cooler wines I tasted from 2018 due to its unique blend of 90% Malbec and 10% Merlot. Not much is made, so look out for it if you can find any.

Rich, lush and juicy with dark plush, ripe, sweet, fleshy fruits. The finish keeps on going, which is a good things, as you really want to keep on enjoying the blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc.

One of the very wines produced from 100% Malbec in Bordeaux, the wine is inky in color with purple accents. The wine is meaty, spicy, peppery, dark and dense. The wine really keeps on going on your palate and in the finish.

Medium-bodied, fully-mature, early drinker with round textures and a licorice and dark red plum character. Pleasant, but not much complexity. Subsequent vintages show a lot of improvement.

It is fun tasting older vintages of this 95% Malbec from Bordeaux. Mature, full-bodied, rich, spicy, robust, and cherry-filled, with spicy, peppery, herbal accents accompanying the dark red fruits, this is ready for its prime time window.
