93 points James Suckling: "There’s tightness and light austerity that gives this wine some attention to detail. Medium body. Juicy fruit. Hints of herbs, tobacco, plums and chocolate, all together. Pretty wine for current drinking. (4/2/20)"

92 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "I found the 2015 Black Tears Malbec to be very classical and proportioned, floral, aromatic and fresh. It comes from the higher-altitude vineyards in San Pablo where the soils are shallow and have lots of stones. It matured in new and second use French oak barrels for 18 months (down from 24 in the previous vintage) and has integrated oak. It has ripe fruit without excess and is neatly balanced by very good acidity. It's powerful and elegant, nicely textured. It feels a little riper after a long time in the glass. 18,000 bottles were filled in February 2018. Drink: 2021-2026. (Mar 2021)"

92 points Wine Spectator: "[$65 list] Luscious and well-spiced, with concentrated raspberry and wild cherry flavors backed by vibrant acidity. Tobacco leaf accents on the savory finish. Drink now through 2025. (12/31/20)"
