Ricominciare 2008 Altísimo Malbec (Uco Valley)

  1. $30
An exotic style of Malbec with Middle Eastern spice, violet, anise and berry aromas. The palate has hammering tannins but enough body to absorb it, leaving herbal black fruit, fig and peppery flavors. Warm and toasty on the finish, with savory notes that last for a good long while.  — M.S.  (11/1/2011)

Ricominciare 2008 Altísimo Cabernet Franc (Uco Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $30
Rubbery smelling at first, then earthy cherry and stewed fruit aromas emerge. Juicy and a bit pointed in terms of acidity, so it shocks the palate and pierces the cheeks. Tastes pulsing and ripe, with big red fruit flavors, candied sweetness, coconut and chocolate.  — M.S.  (12/31/2011)

Ricominciare 2009 Malbec-Tannat (Uco Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $17
A bit lemony and herbal on the nose, with scratchy, forward raspberry and red plum aromas. Feels a touch clacky due to blazing acidity, but there’s good structure and definition to the palate. Tastes herbal, with peppery accents to cassis and berry flavors. Burns a bit on the finish, with choppy tannins.  — M.S.  (3/1/2012)
