James Suckling
BenMarco Malbec 2022
Mendoza
Argentina

"Dusty red and black cherries with a sulfurous, almost volcanic verve and a hint of spice. Juicy and chalky on the palate with a medium to full body and tightly wound tannins. Fresh, pristine and full of fruit." —James Suckling

"The 2022 Malbec BenMarco from Los Chacayes in Uco Valley is a vibrant purple, showcasing violet and cherry notes with a balsamic touch. Juicy and flavorful, it presents expressive fruit, finishing with a hint of sour cherry and the slightly rough tannins characteristic of Los Chacayes." —Vinous

"Generous, with a deep base of violet and berry preserves, adding brambly, herb- and pepper-accented berry flavors at the core. Prominent acidity and minerality offers some dimension, adding subtle cocoa bean and spice details on the finish. Drink now through 2040." —Wine Spectator
