Score: Robert Parker 93+/100
"The 2007 Calchetas is a blend of 50% Merlot, with Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Syrah. Saturated purple in color, it exudes a superb bouquet of smoky wood, pencil lead, mineral, incense, blueberry and blackberry. On the palate, the wine is buoyed by acidity and has the structure and balance to evolve for another 6-8 years". (Robert Parker - April 2010)
