Reviews
Vintage 2010: Wine Advocate 92 Points
“The 2010 Malbec displays greater aromatic complexity as a result of a
lengthier sojoum in barrel. It nicely combines elegance and power in its plush,
layered, sesuous personality. Give this dese effort another 2-3 years of
cellaring and drink it from 2014 to 2022. The grapes are sourced from ols
wines in La Consulta”. Jay Miller Feb. 2012
