2011 Puro Uno Malbec Gran Reserva Mendoza

(90PTS) Rich, mature aromas of chocolate, caramel, baking spice, blackberry and cassis feed a clamping palate with wiry tartaric acidity. At 15.5% abv, this is an old-school more-is-more Malbec that tastes of baked plum, blackberry, vanilla and chocolate. Staunch acidity stands out on a thick finish dominated by blackened toast and coffee flavors. Drink now.
