93 points James Suckling: "Blueberry and blackberry aromas and flavors with some hints of flowers. Full body, layered and rich. A red with structure and depth. Drink now. (4/5/18)"

90 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "[$19 list] Cropped from a cool, wet and low-yielding year for the variety, the 2016 Reserva Malbec was produced with grapes from their vineyards in Valle de Uco. It fermented in stainless steel vats and matured in French oak barrels for 12 months. It's riper and more concentrated than the Cabernet Sauvignon, but it's still atypical and has moderate alcohol and good acidity. It has soft, fine-grained tannins with a pleasant texture and a dry finish. Drink: 2018-2021. (Jun 2018)"
