“An interesting wine”

“WOW, WOW, WOW, and WOW!! This was a BIG surprise and I take back all the nasty things I've ever said about Malbec/Merlot. From the moment I saw the bottle of this I knew I was in for a big treat. If you like big gutsy reds which you can't see through in the glass and stick to your mouth well after you've drunk them, you HAVE to try this. When I poured this into a glass for the first time I got very excited and could tell I was gonna love this wine... Lot's of Tannins and dark fruit flavours. Best Merlot I have ever had. Did I mention WOW! NOTE: This was the 2008 Vintage - 96/100 IMHO”

“Argentine Malbec is worth buying. Michel Torino makes great Malbec and is great value. Highly recomend and will buy again.”

“This is a powerhouse wine for those who like some real flavour and "guts" in their red wine. It should handle a strong matching dish, eg, lamb shanks or a savoury beef curry. Proper room temperature and some breathing is recommended. Not for the faint-hearted!”

“Powerful dark fruits on the nose, deep purple color, perfectly blended flavors, silky smooth with a dash of treacle in the mouth, plenty of fine tannins but no harshness: this one ticks all the boxes for me. But is it worth the extra $10 a bottle? I compared it with two good $20+ NZ reds I recently drank, both of which in retrospect I would rate solid four stars. The answer, if you can afford it, is yes!! To put my money where my mouth is, I'm ordering two more bottles.”
