Moderately complex, surprisingly crushable #mendoza #cabernetsauvignon at one of my favorite wine bar and bites place. — 2 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.

Terrific #chardonnay from #mendoza . Lemon zest, citrus oil, wet stone aromas. Lemon zest, juicy tartness and a touch of lemon pie buttery crust palate. — 3 years ago

Deep bramble fruit nose, nicely balanced #mendoza #malbec, all important acidity is there, 13.5% ABC. QPR is strong from Costco. — 4 years ago

Lovely. Blueberries, blackberries, hickory, maple, bacon fat, hints of chocolate. Maintains a balanced acidity and fine granular tannins. I love it. Much better than many Napa Cabernets which cost 2x or 3x the price. #malbec #mendoza #argentina — 6 years ago

I’ve had mixed opinions on The Waxed Bat wines but this reserve #cabernet #malbec is quite good. Concentrated dark berry on the nose and palate with a weighty mouthfeel to match. There’s velvety tannins and overall pretty good balance in this #mendoza blend. — 7 years ago

Decent #mendoza #cabernet but not quite as good as the hype. Needs to breathe for at least an hour and then there’s a touch of spice but lacks impact and richness. — 8 years ago

Ya gotta love #mendoza #chardonnay that punches weigh above its weight class. Subtle apple, pear aromas, comes alive on the palate with juicy tart green apple, lemon zest. Crisp texture and not at all weighty. — 2 years ago

Pleasant #sauvignonblanc from #mendoza - lemon verbena, kaffir lime on the nose, delicious mouthwatering tart lemon notes on palate, viscous sensation, crisp finish. Let this one warm up a bit in the glass to enjoy it. #nicewinery — 3 years ago

Reserve #mendoza #malbec with plenty of personality. Bramble fruit, cassis, faint tobacco and vanilla hints on nose. Taut acidity up front on palate, medium plus body, fruit more shy than the nose would suggest, peppery spice, then leather tobacco progress to grippy tannins on the finish. Those tannins and acidity suggest this wine could easily evolve 5 years or more in the cellar. Brilliant glass paired with Wagyu steak sandwich with chimichurri sauce. — 3 years ago

I preferred the Enemigo red much more than this white #chardonnay it is a new world style with some tropical fruit aromas and a new oak undertone with hints of coconut. It is a well-made wine, fine and delicate. #argentina #mendoza — 5 years ago

I loved this. Rich, luscious dark fruit, dark chocolate, tea leaves. Inky, brambly decadence #malbecmalbec #mendoza — 7 years ago

More structure, more delineated than the 2015. Wrapper leaf, raspberry, cocoa powder. Bordelaise. Just extraordinary. Hard to ask for more at under $15. #fabremontmayou #lujondecuyo #mendoza #cabernetfranc — 8 years ago

Exquisite single vineyard #cabernetfranc from #agrelo #mendoza. Deep well of purple & black berries, graphite, dark cocoa on the nose. Considerable tension on palate offsetting a beam of dark fruit, peppery finish and yes some pleasant red pepper notes towards the finish with soft tannins to close things out on the mouth-smacking finish. — 2 years ago

One more winner from Nice Winery: Softly spiced blackberry and plum nose framed by faint coffee aromas. Proportional acidity and fruit on palate, more pronounced dark chocolate notes, soft tannins on the finish that build over time. #mendoza #cabernetfranc — 3 years ago

Intense purple-magenta color; black bramble fruit, soft pepper notes on nose. Palate - lush dark fruit wave offset by generous acidity and a pronounced spicy-pepper finish with fine-spun tannins on a prolonged finish. Enchanting high QPR #mendoza #malbec. — 4 years ago

Exemplary QPR #mendoza #cabernetfranc - beautiful violet, wet slate, softly spiced cassis aromas as this deeply extracted wine awakens in the glass. Chic balance of tension, bramble fruit and finely structured tannins on a long coasting finish. ~$15 at Total Wine. — 5 years ago

Pretty uninteresting #mendoza #malbec - just flat without much depth. Perhaps it’s a mellow wine crowd pleaser but not my thing. — 7 years ago
