Don Miguel Gascón Reserva Malbec is a rich, signature style Malbec, aged a minimum of one year in oak barrels to impart just the right amount of complexity. Burgeoning with distinctive dark fruit flavors and aromas, this full-bodied, intensely flavorful wine offers layers of ripe plum, blackberry and dark cherry, accented by hints of chocolate and black pepper. Round tannins and final notes of brown spice and oak combine to create a firm, persistent finish.
I tasted a barrel sample of the 2008 Reserve, a wine with no specific release date and a price that will be in the $20-25 range. It is a blend of 88% Malbec, with the balance Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Sauvignon aged for 14 months in 60% new French and American oak. Purple-colored, it offers up an alluring perfume of wood smoke, spice box, violets, incense, black cherry, and plum. Smooth-textured with some underlying structure, this savory, well-balanced, flavorful effort can be enjoyed upon release but should evolve for several years. —Jay Miller,
This is lightly raisined on the edges, but focused, showing enough plum and blackberry fruit at the core for balance. Sweet licorice marks the finish. Drink now. —James Molesworth,
