Wine from Mendoza

jamessuckling.com, 97 points: This is another rock-star chardonnay from here with dried-apple, pear-skin, crushed-stone and peach-pit character. Full body. Creamy texture. Phenolic form and a long, flavorful finish. Drink or hold.

jamessuckling.com, 100 points: This is the greatest Cheval des Andes ever. Discrete aromas of blackberries, flowers, stone and licorice. So perfumed. The integration of fruit, tannins and acidity is fantastic. Full-bodied, tight and solid with...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2016 Malbec Gran Reserva fermented in closed barrels with some three to four percent Sémillon in search of an elegant and less concentrated Malbec. The wine also matured in these French oak barrels (always from...

jamessuckling.com, 99 points: Super refined and beautiful with flowers, spices, dried fruit and hints of stones. Medium to full body with very fine tannins and a gorgeous finish. Shows great finesse and depth. Savory character, as always, but in...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: The nose of the 2017 La Cautiva, a pure Gualtallary, has violets, flowers, herbs and spices and opens up as the wine sits in the glass, quite complex and layered. There are some more tannins than in 2016, possibly...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: This is the first vintage of this chardonnay and semillon blend. Very dense and agile with a solid core of fruit. It is pushing the limit for Argentine whites. No malo. Totally cool. Full and foursquare. A new dimension...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The 2013 Gran Enemigo is a blend with a lot more Cabernet Franc, quite different from the 2012. It is a blend of 50% Cabernet Franc, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec, 10% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot from Gualtallary in...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: The 2016 Seminare comes from a head-pruned plot (Eiti Leda) that yields no more than 1,200 kilos per hectare. It's from a vineyard planted in 2013 in Gualtallary that they didn't irrigate in 2016, as the year saw more...

jamessuckling.com, 97 points: This is a rich and glorious wine with so much blackberry and salty character. Light hints of cloves and green coffee beans. Full-bodied, layered and tight. Focused and racy. Cabernet franc with cabernet sauvignon, petit...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: The 2013 Nicolás Catena Zapata is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Malbec from the La Pirámide, Adrianna and Nicasia vineyards. It is perfectly clean and focused, a noticeable improvement over the 2012 vintage...
