Matias Riccitelli Republica del Malbec 2018

There’s real purity of blue malbec fruit with deep, dark earth and violets. You find these both on the nose and palate. It’s full-bodied with tight, lightly dusty tannins that provide minerality to the whole wine. Tight at the finish. Give it time to open. Try after 2024. Score – 96. (jamessuckling.com, April 8, 2021)
