Deep violet color. Intense red fruit and flower aromas. Spicy notes. Soft tannins, dark plums, blackberries and spicy notes. Long finish. It can be consumed now but will age beautifully for several years
93 pts Wine and Spirits
Crunchy violets and blue-and-red fruits come together in this mountain-grown beauty, a blend of malbec (CK)(60 percent) and cabernets franc (30 percent) and sauvignon. It effectively captures malbec’s flavors in a crisp, high-altitude shape, the lift of the cabernet franc working in service of the total package, giving the wine a gently perfumed gravitas
92 James Suckling
This has a fragrant nose of chocolate, nutmeg, blue and black fruit, cracked pepper and vanilla bean. It’s cool and composed, with a full body and firm yet ripe tannins.
