Vinous
From Luján de Cuyo, the 2021 Malbec De Sangre was aged for 12 months in used barrels. Intense purple color in the glass. The nose presents violets, fresh plum, balsamic notes, white pepper, hints of oak, black tea and a whiff of grapefruit. Plush and broad with fruity flavor and voluminous, polished tannins. The texture is velvety before the long, fruity finish.
James Suckling
This has a toasty character with notes of ripe plums and cherries as well as sweet spices, hazelnuts and grilled herbs. Medium- to full-bodied with plush, creamy tannins and rich core of dark fruit and spices. Rich and mellow finish.
Wine Spectator
Abundantly spiced and layered with floral and savory thyme details that join a juicy blackberry and plum core, which fans out nicely around chiseled tannins and a note of hibiscus.
Wine Enthusiast
This wine is a blend of Malbec grapes from vineyards in the Luján de Cuyo region and is one of the few Malbec DOCs available in the market. Herbaceous notes dominate the palate in this vintage. The nose offers aromas of violets, cassis and plum jam. Flavors of grass, cinnamon and plum are lifted by much-needed acidity. It has a velvety texture and smoky notes in the meaty finish. Let it breathe for a few minutes before drinking.
