Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2010 Oak Cask Malbec is a candidate for best bargain in my Argentina tastings. Aged for 9 months in French and American oak, this purple-colored effort displays an alluring nose of cedar, spice box, lavender, and black cherry. In the glass it displays succulent fruit, good depth, and a pure, lengthy finish. It over-delivers in a very big way and could easily pass for a wine costing 3-4 times as much. Drink it over the next 3-4 years.

Smoke, rubber and spice aromas mix with ripe berry scents to form a solid and impressive bouquet. It's thick and saturated but balanced, with harmonious, easy to like flavors of blackberry and cassis. Long and solid on the finish; captures the essence of value-priced Malbec.

Since the beginning, Trapiche has understood the promise of viticulture in Argentina. Trapiche specializes in bringing out the best of each terroir and creating unique wines from each. This diversity is possible thanks to 3000 acres of owned vineyards and 300 independent producers who contribute their best grapes for the wines. Quality, innovation and diversity have always been the pillars that guide Trapiche's journey.
