100 points Jeb Dunnuck: "From the high-altitude vineyard site in Paraje Altamira, the 2020 Malbec Finca Piedra Infinita Supercal is from a specially selected site within the vineyard that has consistently shown distinct characteristics that warrant its own bottling. Hugely structured, it oozes salinity, iron, blood, dried herb, and stone, while maintaining underlying freshness. It's all structure and intensity. A fantastic achievement in Malbec and this specific sense of place. Age 25-30 years. Drink: 2025-2055. (5/22/25)"

98 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "The grapes for the 2020 Finca Piedra Infinita Supercal were the first to be picked from the Piedra Infinita vineyard in the warm 2020 vintage, and the wine is built more around the fruit. It is juicy and pure and has similar levels of alcohol and acidity/freshness as the 2019, but of the two vintages, which I tasted side by side, this feels gentler and rounder. It has complexity despite its young age and has notes of orange peel, iron and blood, with the fine limestone sensation. The vintages are always very marked in this wine because the soil is very extreme and shallow and the vines can suffer in dry and warm conditions. 1,450 bottles were filled in June 2021. Drink: 2023-2030. (11/30/22)"

98 points Zekun Shuai (JamesSuckling.com): "A very young, beautiful malbec that is still a bit reductive now. Fresh herbs, white pepper, violets, iron and some ripe black cherries to the nose. Full-bodied on the palate with plenty of powerful, fine tannins. Mineral and super fine-grained. Needs time. Better after 2026. (2/21/23)"

97 points Tim Atkin, MW: "(14%). As its name suggests, the 0.95-hectare Supercal vineyard has a high concentration of calcium carbonate. Fermented with 80% whole bunches in concrete tanks, it’s another triumphant single parcel wine from a winery that is defiantly pushing boundaries in the Uco Valley. Racy, sappy and stony, this has salty minerality, chiselled acidity, bramble, fig and blueberry flavours and top notes of thyme and tobacco leaf. 2025-2035. (2023)"
