Description

Sourced from a 1.5-hectare parcel in Gualtallary's Tupungato Winelands, the 2023 Esperando los Bárbaros Malbec was fermented with 50% whole clusters in concrete eggs. It leads with an uncommonly lifted and electric bouquet, introducing a racy, silky and spry palate. It concludes with a crunchy, live-wire finish framed with elegantly drying tannins. This numbers among the most high-toned, slender and energetic Malbecs I tasted from the Uco Valley. (93) MATTHEW LUCZY, The Wine Advocate
