Description
The 2020 Gran Malbec X comes from Los Arboles in the Uco Valley and was aged for 12 months in 20% new French oak barrels. Dark purple in hue. The nose presents enticing aromas of mountain herbs, ripe plums and hints of sun-kissed grapes against an oaky backdrop. The palate is indulgent, with an almost juicy character. The finely-grained, reactive tannins and plush texture create a velvety mouthfeel that delivers plenty of lasting ripe fruit flavour. This wine is a well-executed take on a warm year.

Drink 2023 - 2032

James Suckling 95/100

A firm and well-framed Malbec with aromas of walnuts, blackberries, mulberries, tea leaves and dark chocolate. Full-bodied yet classy and not at all heavy, with firm, tight tannins and layers of just-ripe dark fruit and dark spice. Long, focused and sophisticated. Better from 2025
