Notes | "The elegant, commercial and approachable 2016 Malbec Remolinos Vineyard has a good combination of ripe fruit and spice, with a polished, soft mouthfeel that makes it approachable. There are some leather aromas that add some complexity." (Wine Advocate) "A sanguine red, with notes of hot stone to the raspberry, dried cherry and floral flavors. The savory finish has some minerally accents. Drink now through 2021." (Wine Spectator) | |||
Additional Notes "More lively than deep on the nose, with aromas of black cherry, violet and herbs complemented by chocolatey oak. A juicy wine with moderate texture to its dark berry and dark chocolate flavors. Shows decent length for the year but the tannins are a bit dusty and drying. As much savory as sweet, but rather slight and herbal. Clearly the product of a difficult vintage." (Vinous) |
