CRITIC REVIEWS
Jancis Robinson
From Las Compuertas and Paraje Altamira. 58% Malbec, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot. El Niño vintage so no hydric stress. The last vintage with Petit Verdot. They regard this as a great vintage because of the nautral freshness. They loved the precision. Neat and lively. Like a luxury car. Bit of bite and raciness. Great energy.
Jane Anson
Immediately seductive floral and smoke notes. The complexity in the construction of the wine is clear - precise cassis and blueberry along with slate, scorched earth and the seductive, succulent and powerful spice of Malbec. Excellent quality, with liqourice root and violet curling out of the glass. First year with 100% of grapes from their own plots, entirely given over to Cheval des Andes, without any from Terrazas de los Andes. Lorenzo Pasquini winemaker. 70% new oak.
