Cinco Sentidos 2005 Gran Reserva Red (Mendoza)

  1. $45
A touch raisiny but lusty and rich, with licorice, mint, black plum and fruitcake aromas. The palate is mouthfilling despite rather pointed acidity, and thus the flavors of juicy blackberry, cherry, pepper and coffee are accurate and appropriate. Long, toasty and yet again slightly raisiny on the finish. Drink now; 300 cases made.  — M.S.  (12/31/2010)

Cinco Sentidos 2005 Reserva Malbec-Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendoza)

  1. $24
Blackberry and slightly green, herbal aromas start it off, and while the flavors maintain that herbal, green-tobacco core, there’s enough body, blackberry and oaky coffee and mocha notes to make it a nice wine. Needs more clarity of fruit, cleanliness and purity to reach the peak, but still good as is.  — M.S.  (12/31/2010)

Cinco Sentidos 2009 Torrontés (Mendoza)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $14
Lightly tropical to begin with, then more sheering and acidic in the mouth, with high-toned, jacked-up flavors of green apple, pineapple and lemon. Quite snappy and fresh, with an aggressive but true and correct finish.  — M.S.  (12/31/2010)

Cinco Sentidos 2006 Malbec (Mendoza)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $14
Medicinal, soupy and not fully clicking. The nose is fishy and the palate has a grating feel and flavors of dried fruits, cola and caramel. Finishes with a toffee-like sweetness and wayward buttery flavors.  — M.S.  (12/31/2010)

Cinco Sentidos 2009 Chardonnay (Mendoza)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $14
Smells like corn stalks and also of oxidation. The palate is wet but shapeless, and the flavors are waxy and jumbled. It’s yet another pass-it-by, underperforming Mendoza Chardonnay.  — M.S.  (12/31/2010)
