Malbec Angel Paulucci 2018

- 90 points -

Good dark ruby. Crushed blackberry and cassis aromas are complicated by a licorice nuance. Pliant and nicely concentrated, showing a penetrating sweetness as well as sound framing acidity to its red and darker berry and dark chocolate flavors. Spreads out nicely to saturate the palate on the back end, finishing with a broad dusting of tannins and a building floral element. A very expressive Malbec, and a steal for the price. The vines here are reportedly close to 50 years old.
