Vinous: 90 Points

The 2020 Malbec Pioneer was 60% aged in used barrels. Purplish-red in hue. The nose presents notes of jammy red fruit, redcurrant and hints of herbs. Intense in the mouth with a juicy flow and grippy tannins, it delivers contained power and flavor balanced out by the freshness. Drinking Window: 2022 - 2030. Joaquín Hidalgo, 9/2022.

#57 TOP 100 BEST BUY 2022
Red berry, spice and a light note of licorice show in the glass of this medium-bodied wine. Vanilla blends nicely with bright red-fruit flavors and herbaceous notes on the palate. It finishes with rosemary flavors. Jesica Vargas, 11/1/2022.

James Suckling: 90 Points

Gooseberry leaves and cassis on the nose with some plums and baking spices. A medium-bodied cabernet franc with chewy tannins and some herbal tones in the finish. Fluent and drinkable, but not quite intense.
