2018 Rubus Icono Malbec - 92 PTS - W&S

wine and spirits logo 250

 "Fran Kysela’s Argentinian branch of the Rubus project is made by Walter Bressia, working with 10-year-old vines in Paraje Altamira. A year in barriques imparted some richness in this wine, chocolate and coffee notes that segue into a plum-pit pucker and blueberry-skin tannins. Lasting and precise, there’s something charmingly midcentury about it. Pour it next to a steak salad with blue-cheese dressing."
