2014 Casir dos Santos Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - 88 PTS - VINOUS

vinous logo"Bright medium ruby. Pungent aromas of cassis, licorice pastille and herbs are less minty and weedy than those of the 2014 Reserve Malbec. Moderately dense and juicy, with its fine-grained, well-delineated blackberry, cassis, licorice and bitter chocolate flavors conveying good energy. I marked this down a bit for its slightly underripe/overripe combination of greenness and nuttiness, but it's clearly sweeter than the Malbec. Finishes with dusty tannins. - Stephen Tanzer"

2015 Casir dos Santos Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - 88 PTS - VINOUS

vinous logo"(13.9% alcohol): Bright medium ruby. Pungent, high-toned aromas of blackberry, black pepper, licorice pastille and spices, plus a faint weedy nuance. Sweeter and plusher in the mouth than the nose suggests, but still with a pungent licorice-and-pepper quality to its dark berry flavors. A bit disjointed owing to its combination of somewhat herbal flavors and thick, smooth texture but the tannins are harmonious and fine-grained. I'd like to see this again in a year or two. - Stephen Tanzer"

2017 Casir dos Santos Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon - 88 PTS - WA

wa88"The 2017 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon has an unusual nose that combines notes of cherries in liqueur and liniment. It's a bit jammy and candied. It's still quite hard and tannic. There's no origin on the label, not even Mendoza, but apparently the grapes came from Gualtallary. 5,000 bottles were filled in December 2018. - Luis Gutiérrez"
