Bric del Fiasc is usually a massively tannic wine

The 2010 Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino is a blend of grapes from Adrianna and Nicasia

There is enough reduction to prevent a proper assessment of the nose

but I imagine it will remain a brute for quite some time beyond that

Diamond Creek, Gravelly Meadow other_regions with superb delineationDiamond Creek's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Gravelly Meadow is defined by a sense of translucency and lift that is compelling. Medium in body and light on its feet, the 2014 is all about persistence. Here, too, the tannins are remarkably soft and polished for such a young Diamond Creek wine. Hints of lavender, plum, violet, spice and mint add character to a wine that speaks to finesse more than pure power. Antonio Galloni
