Viña Cobos Felino Malbec 2022

The 2024 Malbec Felino is sourced 65% from Valle de Uco, 35% from Lujan de Cuyo, with the wine aged in small barriques for nine months, only 8% new. Juicy in a tantalizing combination of red and blue fruit, the tannins are soft and supple in texture and grip. The fruit is focused and ripe, fully developed, and dark and brooding in color. There’s structure to the tannins and moderate acidity, providing a foundation for the beautifully juicy red fruit and light spice. Drink now and for another 10 years. Maturity: 2025-2035. Score – 94.
