94 points James Suckling: "A fresh and linear red with blackberries, blackcurrants and dark chocolate. Medium-bodied, very polished and refined on the palate with a lively finish. Linear at the end. This has more cabernet franc than normal. Malbec, merlot, syrah, cabernet franc, petit verdot, and cabernet sauvignon. Drink or hold. (2/7/24)"
92 points JoaquÃn Hidalgo (Vinous): "The 2021 Red Blend comes from Campo de los Andes in the Uco Valley. It is a blend of 55% Malbec, 16% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Syrah, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, 70% aged in a third new oak barrels with the remainder going into steel tanks. A rich purple in hue. The nose presents a complex array of aromas ranging from plum and blackberry to violets, ash and oak. It's dry and juicy on the palate, with refined tannins and well-balanced acidity. Concentrated and long-lasting, the cool vintage brought an extra dimension. Drink: 2025-2036. (Jun 2023)"
91 points Jeb Dunnuck: " Slightly more vibrant and fresh, yet not as opulent or concentrated as the 2020, the 2021 Clos De Los Siete comes from a cooler year and is based on 59% Malbec, 15% Merlot, 13% Syrah, and the rest Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot, all of which spent 11 months in a mix of new and used barrels, as well as a touch in tank. This deeper ruby/purple-hued effort offers a perfumed, complex nose of ripe red and blue fruits, leafy herbs, cedarwood, and exotic spices. Playing in the medium-bodied end of the spectrum, it's balanced and has beautiful tannins, a nicely integrated spine of acidity, and outstanding length. This elegant 2021 benefits from a decant and is going to evolve gracefully over the coming 10-12+ years if well stored. Drink: 2024-2037. (8/22/24)"
