Jancis Robinson 16.5/20!"Aged in French oak barrels. From Lunlunta vines planted in 1928! Big and glamorous and very well judged. Pure hedonism without too much alcohol. Some minerality."
Jancis Robinson, 25 May 2012
Wine Advocate 90 points!"The grapes for the 2010 Lunta Malbec were sourced from 82-year-old ungrafted vines located on the southernmost parcel of the Mendel Vineyard and the wine was made at the Mendel winery. Made in a more forward style than the Mendel offerings, it spent 12 months in French oak (65%) and 35% in stainless steel prior to bottling without fining or filtration. It offers up an alluring bouquet of Asian spices, incense, lavender, and black cherry. Plush, ripe, and pleasure-bent on the palate, this crowd-pleaser is meant for drinking over the next 6 years."
