2017 Altos de las Hormigas - Malbec Valle de Uco Appellation Gualtallary

After some ups and downs in past vintages, the 2017 Malbec Appellation Gualtallary is every bit as good as the already superb 2017. It's expressive, mineral and vertical, austere, like biting into chalk. It's produced with grapes from a rented plot in a s...

2019 Altos de las Hormigas - Malbec Mendoza Classico

Their bread-and-butter red 2019 Malbec Clasico wants to show, through an early harvest and an elevage without oak, that not all Malbec from Mendoza is jammy. 2019 was much warmer than 2018, and the grapes developed full flavors like they haven't seen for ...

2018 Altos de las Hormigas - Malbec Valle de Uco Terroir

The 2018 Malbec Terroir Valle de Uco has great brightness of fruit and much more freshness than the one from Lujan that I tasted next to it. It's expressive, aromatic and more elegant, with refined tannins and a silkier mouthfeel. There is a special brigh...

2018 Catena - Cabernet Franc San Carlos

This variety looks at home here, showing a fresh edge of light herbs across red berries and red plums. The palate has a very seamless, supple feel and a fresh, elegant yet long finish. Good depth here

2017 Catena - Malbec Adrianna Vineyard River Stones

Incredible aromas of blackberries, hot stones, wet earth and flowers. Full-bodied, it floats across the palate with ultra-fine tannins that melt into the wine. Superb, long finish of subtle fruit and terroir-defined subtleties.

2018 Catena - Cabernet Sauvignon Alta

There is a faint roasted note in the nose of the 2018 Catena Alta Cabernet Sauvignon, a blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Cabernet Franc, with more Cabernet Franc in this warmer year (compared with 2019). It has a very classical nose, combining the h...

2019 Catena - Malbec Mendoza Paraje Altamira

Following the path of the 2018, the 2019 Appellation Paraje Altamira Malbec is phenomenal. It shows freshness, elegance, balance, complexity and nuance as well. It's seamless, precise and ethereal with lots of inner energy and light. As the 2018 was, it's...

2019 Catena - Malbec Mendoza

The excellent and floral 2019 Catena Malbec shows the typicity of the grape, violets and red berries, and the freshness of the year. It has the textbook aromas and a soft and velvety mouthfeel, with very fine grainy tannins. 2.1 million bottles produced.
