Achaval Ferrer Finca Bella Vista Malbec, Perdriel, 2014 Argentina Bodega Vistalba black cherry and blueberries framed

black cherry and blueberries framed by hints of spices and mint

It has a seamless and solid palate with very fine tannins and a balanced mouthfeel

The long and expressive finish makes me think of waves crashing over a rocky shoreline

The finish is elegant and long with notes of minerality

Achaval Ferrer Finca Bella Vista Malbec, Perdriel, 2014 Argentina Bodega Vistalba black cherry and blueberries framedToasty oak gives lots of sweet spice and chocolate character here, followed by blackberries, blueberries and hints of nori, flint and violet extract. Really precise on the palate, showing ripe but freshly crushed blueberries and flowers. Really long, focused finish. Give it a year to let the oak settle, even if it drinks effortlessly now. 96 Pts James Suckling
