Wine from Argentina

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2007 Poesia has a more pastille-like bouquet with vivacious small dark cherries, blueberry and a touch of boysenberry that exudes more minerality than previous vintages. The palate is medium-bodied and very elegant...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points: I also tasted the 2014 Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Single Vineyard, which might take some months to come into the market. It has some balsamic aromas, medicinal hints, traces of orange peel, saffron and a touch of sweet...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The purple-colored 2006 Poesia, sourced from an 80-year-old vineyard in Lujan de Cuyo, was barrel fermented and aged for 18 months in new French oak. It is a blend of 60% Malbec and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. It exhibits a...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: This is a ringer for a top Chinon. A crazy blend of malbec, cab franc and pinot noir. And it's made in concrete amphoras that are buried in the same vineyard. Very crazy wine. Full body, silky and rich with so much plum...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The insultingly young 2015 J Alberto is the most backward of the three wines I tasted on this occasion. It comes from four hectares of vines planted in 1955 with an ungrafted massale field blend selection, mostly Malbec...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The top of the range, the 2013 Decero Amano Remolinos Vineyard is superb in a fresh vintage like 2013. This time the blend was 65% Malbec, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot and 3% Tannat. The élevage might sound a...

Vinous, 90 points: Bright ruby-red. Expressive nose melds kirsch, black raspberry, licorice, violet and graphite. Quite graceful on the palate, at once liqueur-like and energetic, with flavors of currant, cedar and graphite spreading out to...
