An aromatic, very expressive behemoth. Coming from the arid Argentinian Andes foothills, this is a fantastically concentrated wine: the yield PER PLANT is less than a pound of grapes or 1/3 bottle of wine (!). Didn't finish it all and will be tested in 24 hours. Let's see.

Friday night with a bottle from @catenawines 2016 #malbec Rich aromas of ripe red fruits. Medium body and juicy finish. Very recommended for your #everydaywine 🍷Cheers to #argentinawine — 4 years ago
Day 3: Big, black chocolate nose, with baked blackberry, black olives, and charred beef ribs charging from the glass. The floodgates have finally opened, and it was worth the wait! There is fresh cocoa bean pods and a jungle of flora; rosemary and iris extracts and an oatmeal raisin aspect to the perfuming.
Just the right texture for the pungent hothouse welcome: grippy and coarse, with a bitter chocolate and raspberry interplay, and a single unforgettable graphite and smoky slate backbone; unwavering in the churn of black currant, pepper, eucalyptus, leather and tobacco. Léoville Poyferré's high octane new world Malbec that puts a LOT of stick about! It also has an elegance, as all good dominatrixes should! You'll get a kick out of this! #LéovillePoyferré #bordeauxandburgers #argentinawine #Argentina #malbec #malbecmalbec #newworldmeetsoldworld #CuvelierLosAndes #andes #grandmalbec #ucovalley #uco #mendoza — 8 years ago
This 2015 is tasting wonderful. Only stainless and yet you would swear it had large format oak due to the supple tannins. In a good moment. #bonarda #argentinawine #argentina — 5 years ago
All the other people who have tasted this wine and scored it below 9 have no idea how to score a wine or what an #outstandingwine tastes like. Sorry, it's true. This is pure #liquidhoney #liquidheaven #lateharvest #torrontés #argentinawine — 7 years ago
Loved this. Great blend. Ate with beet and carrot salad, pizza and cheese. Bold but still notably smooth #MalbecSyrahBlend #ArgentinaWine #DontCryForMeArgentina #Evita #WinePlease — 8 years ago

Lovely mushroom emerges within a lovely and gracefully aged malbec showing appropriate raisination. Tulip, violet, hibiscus and rosemary-beef; bllackberry and cocoa, cracked pepper. Dense coloration just brimming on brick. Concentrated plum and cinnamon collide with tobacco, cedar and savory as well as slightly sour cherry and roobios.
