ACHÁVAL-FERRER
Malbec Mendoza Finca Mirador 2006

 

This has a stunning nose, with a high-toned violet note running through waves of warm blueberry, fig, boysenberry and raspberry compote. The intense palate is superracy, with superb underlying minerality driving the fruit through the long, seamless finish. Flaunts power without ever getting bombastic. Drink now through 2018. 818 cases made. –JM
