Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2010 Malbec spent 7 months in a mix of new and used French oak. Made in an elegant, racy style, it offers up inviting notions of spice box, violets, and assorted black fruits. Well-balanced, smooth-textured, and moderately lengthy, it has enough structure to drink well for another 5-6 years. It is an outstanding value.

Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
