Tapiz Black Tears Malbec 2017

Perfumed aromas of violets, lavender, blueberries, cassis and spiced cherries. Herbs and praline, too. It’s medium- to full-bodied with firm, powdery tannins and fresh acidity, despite the richness. Concentrated with a long, chewy finish. Such a beauty already, but better in 2024. [Drink through 2027.] Score – 96. (jamessuckling.com, Feb. 3, 2022)
