WineDiva's Review

Decadent, extravagant, muscular.
This decadent blend of Malbec with 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Syrah doles out extravagant notes of sarsaparilla, mocha, purple berries and leather with a bouquet of rose petals and violets. That fragrant quality is passed onto the palate; generous fruit, supple weight, szechuan peppercorns, rich mocha and leather. It is quite muscular but fresh, the tannins are chewy but polished and is has a long slick finish.
President Juan Peron and his wife Evita were fond of one of Escorihuela's red blends in the 1940s; this wine pays homage to that era with its hefty bottle and powerful character.
