97 points Tim Atkin, MW: "(14%). Piedra Infinita is a regular feature on any list of Argentina’s best Malbecs and is well up to scratch in 2017. Made with fruit from eight, particularly stony parcels, it’s a serious, layered, intensely chalky wine that’s both dense and extremely refreshing at the same time. Black fruits, nuanced oak and chiselled acidity combine appealingly on the palate here. 2022-32. (2020)"
97 points James Suckling: "This is very intense with blackberry and blueberry character, as well as hot stones and granite. Full body. Chewy tannins fan out across the palate. A serious, powerful wine. Needs at least four or five years to soften. Impressive. Try in 2025. (4/2/20)"
96 points Joaquin Hidalgo (Vinous): "A Malbec from Paraje Altamira, the grapes selected from vines growing in eight different types of soil at the Finca Piedra Infinita vineyard before half of them were aged in used barrels for 12 months. The measured nose offers an herb, violet and lavender core from which blackberry subsequently emerges. Makes a big entrance with energy and juice before ceding the impetus to a chalkiness that turns the spotlight on the texture sustained by a flavor-enhancing salinity. A long-lasting, profoundly layered wine. Drink: 2020-2032. (Oct 2020)"
