About Dona Paula 2013 Black Edition, Red Blend, Mendoza
"Argentina's future is in its blends," said Neal Martin, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate taster, after tasting more than 1,500 Argentine wines. And this wine is exactly the future he was referring to. The Doña Paula Estate Black Edition Red Blend has an intense black purple color. On the nose, its aromas of plum, spices and pepper stand out while on the palate it is harmonious and balanced, with round tannins and a long finish. A blend of 60% Malbec, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot aged in French oak barrels for 10 months. Wine Express customers couldn't get enough of the previous vintage drinking up over 450 cases.
Tim Atkin scored this 2013 91 points and the Wine Advocate said "Here the fruit comes from Luján de Cuyo and shows a nice combination of flowers and herbal aromas with very nicely integrated notes for the oak. The palate is silky, medium-bodied and shaped by very fine tannins. It is easy to drink.""
