The Queen of Torrontes shows that she’s a wizard with reds as well as whites with this amazing bottle of Malbec. The nose is beautifully balanced between savory meaty notes and blackberry, black cherry, leaf, fall spice and vanilla. The palate is rich and supple, with great acidity and a long red fruit driven finish. It’s powerful and elegant all at once, and though it’s quite approachable now, I’d give it five or six more years in the bottle for peak enjoyment. Gorgeous Malbec.
