"Intensely aromatic on the nose. Aromas of blueberries, plums, and blackberries. Extremely well balanced fruit to acidity balance. This is a medium to heavy weight wine. Mouth-filling, and smooth finish." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"This shows reserved character with aromas of blueberries and blackberries, cedar wood, licorice, crushed stones and a touch of mushroom. Medium-bodied with polished tannins. Juicy, with savory blue fruit and hints of blue flowers. Smooth, polished finish. Drink or hold." —James Suckling "The 2021 Malbec Reserve from Agrelo and Perdriel, Lujan de Cuyo was aged for 12 months in used French and American barrels. Bright purple in hue. The enticing nose presents notes of ripe plum, white pepper, ground leaf and violets over a faint bed of oak. Indulgent and taut with a juicy flow, the polished tannins lend volume. An enjoyable, authentically Luján wine." —Vinous "Chocolate and blackberry aromas open the nose of this young red. A light note of crushed pebbles adds to the bouquet. Medium in weight, the palate offers plum, blackberry and earthy flavors supported by chalky tannins. It has a medium finish with chocolate flavors." —Wine Enthusiast |
