94 points James Suckling: "This is a tight and polished red with blackberry and crushed-stone character. Medium-bodied with a beautiful center-palate and a long, slightly austere finish. Terrific malbec from the 1907 La Consulta vineyard. Drink or hold. (5/3/22)"

92 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "The 2020 Signature Malbec was cropped from a warm year and was produced with grapes from an old vineyard in La Consulta in the Valle de Uco planted 10 years ago. In this case, 80% of the volume matured in French oak barrels for 12 months, and the rest was kept in stainless steel. 2020 produced a dark wine that is ripe, reflecting the warm year, and it has notes of blackberries and black rather than red fruit in general. It's medium to full-bodied, with very integrated oak (the wines are not marked by the oak anymore) and ripe, round tannins. This is quite traditional and very good at it. It's getting better and better by the year. Drink: 2022-2026. (Nov 2022)"

90 points Joaquín Hidalgo (Vinous): "The 2020 Malbec Marcelo Pelleriti Signature was 80% aged in used barrels for up to eight months. Purple in hue. The bold nose offers ripe plum and other fruit. In the mouth, it’s intense with alcoholic energy, a taut, juicy palate and refined tannins. Drink: 2022-2034. (Nov 2022)"
