The Alamos Malbec has a dark purple color with violet highlights. The nose offers bright black berry aromas with light floral notes and a touch of toast. The mouth-feel is full and rich, with ripe, concentrated cassis and black raspberry fruit interwoven with a touch of chocolate and sweet spice from light oak aging. The finish shows ripe, silky tannins.
The grapes for Alamos are grown at an altitude of between 3,000 and 5,000 feet where the temperature variation allows the grapes to grow slowly developing more flavour. Hand harvesting and sorting ensure only the best grapes are used to make the wine. This wine is all about bright red and black berry fruits. It is soft and harmonious with just a touch of spice on the smooth finish. A great match for a rare steak or grilled sausages.
93 Point Rated - Bob Campbell The Real Review
“ Dense, fruit-packed malbec with cassis, black berry, liquorice and subtle spicy flavours. A smooth-textured wine in an appealing and very drinkable style. Accessible and probably in peak condition right now but no rush. Very good value at this price.”
91 Point Rated - James Suckling
"Fresh-plum, blackberry and black-tea aromas. It’s medium-bodied with firm, powdery tannins and a flavorful, creamy finish."
90 Point Rated - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"Maybe it was me, but I find the 2020 Malbec to be really excellent, with ripe Malbec fruit, notes of violets and berries and a spicy twist. The palate is round and juicy, nicely textured, with plush tannins and a long finish. Delicious, and a bargain at that price."
