91 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate – 91 Points, James Suckling
The baseline Malbec is a killer value – a Big Red that hits far beyond its modest price tag. Double 91 points from both James Suckling and Parker’s Wine Advocate, with the latter calling it a “nice combination of spice, berry and herbs to make it balanced, expressive and attractive.”
92 Points, James Suckling
This Big Red completely sings with high-toned fruit, a wonderful natural acidity from the elevation, and super-clean, super-concentrated black and blue fruits. You get the blackberry, blueberry, and violet treatment at first with chewy tannins, a hint of minerality, and a juicy, lingering finish.

“The 2021 Malbec Reserva, from Vistalba, Lujan de Cuyo, was 60% aged in barrels for 12 months. Purple in color. The nose presents notes of fresh plum and violets, white pepper, strawberry, hints of spice and aromas from the aging process. It’s initially indulgent in the mouth, with good fat, and volume and a velvety texture. The flavors are bold and full-bodied. This 2021 overdelivers at the price.” -Vinous
It has that vibrant and jammy mix of red and dark fruits with great structure and tannins and a sleek core. It’s a BIG RED that dances in the glass and with a very modest price tag. It’s such an easy ‘buy’.
