Tasting Notes:

The juicy, aromatic and fruit-driven 2018 Inkarri Winemaker’s Selection Malbec felt like pure grape juice, with unnoticeable oak after ten months in 3,000- and 5,000-liter oak vats. It's floral, soft and approachable, clean and pure, not terribly complex but very pleasant. 20,000 bottles were filled in April 2018.

The Wine Advocate

Violets, blackberries and a hint of herbs make this a very expressive and fresh malbec. Powerful with a crisp finish. Drink or hold.
