92: Beautiful, deep, dark purple color. Dark fruit aromas are girded by underlying terroir notes. Sparse, slow, thin legs on the swirl. There's a lot of plum and red berry on the palate over a similar baseline of earthy terroir. Meaty mouthfeel. Incredibly soft tannins. Hints of clove and cacao emerge during the finish. Paired amazingly with a chicken cassoulet, but this would be wonderful with any meat-based dinner.

I really enjoyed this malbec. Soft tannins, nice nose, and decent finish. A little sediment. Not sure it's the best QPR, but very enjoyable nonetheless.

Disappointing bottle. With little to no structure, this wine coasted across the palate with tons of oak flavor but not much else. Lacking acidity for sure, and just overall very flat.

A little lack of clarity and acid left this at a 91, but so tasty regardless.
