Escorihuela Gascón 1884 Estate Grown Malbec 2020

This is a blend based on vineyards in Agrelo, with 80% of the total volume, and the rest comes from El Cepillo, towards the south of the Uco Valley. The presence of Agrelo’s warm climate is evident here, in a friendly, juicy red with ripe fruits and very soft tannins. A good example of what the malbecs from that area generally are. [Drink by 2024.] Score – 90. (Patricio Tapia, guiadescorchados.cl, 2022)
