The generously oaked 2018 Grand Malbec is quite classical, ripe and oaky but less than in the past. It feels like a step up from the 2017 in the quest for more freshness and balance. It's still a little rustic from the abundant tannins on the palate, which give it a slightly powdery texture. It should improve with a little more time in bottle.
Discreetly plush on the nose with blackberries, blueberries and violets. Licorice, too. Full body. Firm and very silky tannins give this real form and structure, suggesting the need to age for at least three to four years. Be patient.
