Very jnteresting Malbec. I would have never pegged it for Argentine malbec but rather right bank Merlot or possibly even northern rhone syrah. Nose is very unique with some old school cellar funk, bacon fat, raspberry, dried sage, and other herbs. Palate is decadent and smooth but not overwhelmingly heavy. Blackberry jam and a whif of powdered cocoa. Really soft texture as it opens up and calms down. Nice bottle with relaxed tannins, definitely doesn't need any more time. — 9 years ago

Staff Selection (Bill McCleary): This Malbec from Terrazas is a new wine that surprises with more than expected taste at a lower than anticipated price. This wine compares to Cahhors, France, the traditional home base of old world Malbec. The French Malbecs have a dry undertone of cured tobacco leafiness with a firm tannin and dark tart damson plum flavor. In Argentina, Malbec has emerged with the intense sun and sandy soil to become an aromatic celebrity with a lush fat rich frutiness and soft texture, often leaving it quite ordinary. Terrazas has found, in this Reserva, a rightful balance of French deep character and Argentine berry brightness. Musky aromas of plum and ripe fig, wood smoke, dark chocolate and a signature array of briary, herbal grassy notes give Malbec a distinct character. A floral rose flower fragrance added to the bouquet. A dense, full-flavor of darker fruit seems comfortable with a tannic thickness that never gets excessive. This is a wine of young character that has great aging potential. Give it a few years in your cellar and you will be enchanted by its maturity. Very approachable now, and would be good paired with a grilled tenderloin topped with melted blue cheese. — 10 years ago

With a lot of Argentine Malbec gaining residual sugar, thank God that Cahors is still on point. A great savory wine with the right amount of tannic structure balanced with a generous amount of dark fruit. — 10 years ago

Both bright and dark at the same time. High mineral content with dark fruit (plum skin and purple berries), tannins, medium bodied with oak tannin. Vanilla, cola, oak, and plum on the finish. Fantastic quality, a reason to love Argentine Malbec. #worldmalbecday — 10 years ago

One of the better Argentine Malbec for me in a while. Violets, iron, spice, blackberry and plum with excellent acidity and structure. A Graves like scorched earth character in the nose was great.
