96 points James Suckling: "Perfumed aromas of violets, lavender, blueberries, cassis and spiced cherries. Herbs and praline, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, powdery tannins and fresh acidity, despite the richness. Concentrated with a long, chewy finish. Such a beauty already, but better in 2024. (2/3/22)"

93 points Wine & Spirits: "Here’s a floral malbec that holds its freshness all the way through. At four years of age, it has developed a creamy blackberry core. It grows at a vineyard 4,430 feet above sea level. There’s something wild about it that dials back that richness, brambly and foresty, and a hint of dark cocoa at the end of its impressive length. (Oct 2021)"

93 points Jesica Vargas (Wine Enthusiast): "The enticing nose shows aromas of plum, blackberry, baking spices, and rosemary. On the full-bodied palate, there are plenty of blackberry and blueberry flavors with a light note of herbs and vanilla. The intense flavors are lifted by lively acidity ending in a lingering finish with subtle oaky notes in the aftertaste. This wine presents a fresher juicy Malbec profile than previous vintages. (Aug/Sep 2022)"
