Description

93 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): “The 2018 Malleolus showed very well. It’s a juicy, ripe and generous old-vine Tempranillo fermented with their own strain of yeasts and matured in French oak barrels. It showcases the house style—ripe and, in this case, with neatly integrated but generous oak. The palate is medium to full-bodied, and the tannins are fine. There is good freshness in 2018. It was bottled in May 2020. Drink: 2021-2025. (Jun 2021)”

93 points Jeb Dunnuck: “All Tempranillo brought up in French oak, the 2018 Malleolus has a classic, traditional, medium-bodied style that offers ample red and black fruits as well as notes of spice, saddle leather, and peppery herbs. With beautifully integrated acidity, a focused, elegant mouthfeel, and outstanding length, it’s already drinking nicely yet should have 10-15 years of prime drinking. Drink: 2021-2036. (8/17/21)”

93 points Sarah Jane Evans, MW (Decanter): “From a mix of old bush vines and some trellised vines. Very aromatic, alluring cherry aromas and vanilla oak notes. Full of dark plum flavours, with fine tannin and a subtle undertone of acidity to refresh. Super-dense with a warming savoury finish. Fermented in stainless steel and aged in French oak. Drinking Window: 2021-2025. Alcohol 14.5%. (Jul 2021)”

91 points Alison Napjus (Wine Spectator): “[$50 list] An expressive red, with a thread of dried mint and mocha winding through the juicy black plum and boysenberry flavors and a minerally underpinning. Dense and focused, with sculpted tannins firming the fresh, spiced finish. Drink now through 2027. 25,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported. (6/15/2022)”
