92 points Wine Spectator: "[$25 list] Very pure, with a beam of raspberry coulis, blackberry and cherry pulp notes that pump out layers of spice, flint and wildflowers. Juicy yet structured, with a mineral edge to the long, savory finish. Drink now through 2015. (8/31/12)"

17/20 points Decanter: "This producer's Malbecs are often held up as representing the apex of the grape in Argentina. This is the most humble offering of its range but still has a fine complex nose of plum, red berries and smoked meat, through to a fresh, savoury palate of red berries with fine tannins. Alcohol 14.5%. (Apr 2013)"
