Fillipo Figar 2001 Anastasia Malbec (Mendoza)

This is a youthful wine that’s a bit rough right now. It starts out with bacon and tar-like aromas before shifting into a mouthful of cherry fruit. The finish is tight and grainy, while the overall profile is tannic and jumpy. Some time in the bottle should help it all come together.  — M.S.  (11/1/2002)

Fillipo Figar 2000 Anastasia Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendoza)

  1. $10
The wine kicks off with raisin and lemon pith notes. Next come sweet but off-kilter flavors of prune, boysenberry and sugar beet. The finish is packed in tight, but the core is a bit sour. This wine is like the proverbial hare: It starts out fast but fades before the finish line.  — M.S.  (11/1/2002)
