Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2007 Malbec Gran Reserva was sourced from a single 82-year-old estate vineyard that spent 16 months in new French oak. It is a denser, richer, more structured version of the Reserva that will benefit from another 4-5 years of cellaring and will provide prime drinking from 2015 to 2022.

Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
