Achaval-Ferrer Mendoza Malbec 2021
100% Malbec. This wine completes Achaval-Ferrer's exploration of Malbec. This Mendoza-appellation Malbec expresses the pure typicity of the variety. Extremely popular, Argentinian Malbec is an inky, medium-bodied, dry red wine with strong impressions of dark fruits on the nose and palate. 92 points James Suckling - Attractive cassis and blueberry aromas here with a swathe of crushed violet flowers. The palate has a very supple and smooth core of fresh red plums that offer a fleshy and smooth ride to the finish. 90 Points Tim Atkin - Achával Ferrer’s “entry-point” Malbec is a pan-Mendoza blend from six sub-regions: Agrelo, Gualtallary, Los Chacayes, Medrano, Paraje Altamira and Perdriel. It’s always a delight to drink with nuanced oak, glossy tannins and ample blackberry and violet notes.
