Terrazas de Los Andes 1999 Gran Malbec, Vineyard las Compuertas (Mendoza)
- $38
A saturated, deeply colored heavyweight that could win a competition for the biggest Malbec going. It’s opulent, with oak-based coconut aromas to go along with prune, maple and black cherry. Almost like Port, with blatant wood, dark fruit and large tannins. Still young and driving and entirely hedonistic.

Terrazas de Los Andes 2007 Reserva Malbec (Mendoza)
- $17
A little damp and earthy at first, but it rounds into a full, powerful Malbec with a lot of color, size and drive. Blackberry, chocolate and spice notes control the hefty palate, and coffee precedes a bitter dryness on the finish. An improvement over the past couple of vintages. Drink now through 2012.

Terrazas de Los Andes 2003 Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendoza)
- $16
Big and sassy, with smoky aromas of barbecued meat, baked dark fruits, eucalyptus and leather. In the mouth, it’s more sweet than subdued, with cassis, blackberry and hints of chocolate. Very much in the modern style, with a plush feel and the aftertaste of coffee meeting cola.

Terrazas de Los Andes 2003 Reserva Malbec (Mendoza)
- $16
. Lots of color and intensity. The bouquet blasts with heavy-metal blackberry and blueberry aromas, while the palate is rich and soft yet structured enough to avoid mushiness. That said, this is a ripe, beefy red, exactly the type of jammy, fruity Malbec that has helped solidify Argentina’s name.

Terrazas de Los Andes 2002 Reserva Chardonnay (Mendoza)
- $15
From Tupungato, this is a very good Chardonnay that offers aromas of pear, vanilla and toasted bread. It’s almost Burgundian in style, with almond and white pepper accenting apple and mild citrus. Would be a good choice with fish or fowl.

Terrazas de Los Andes 2009 Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Dark and leathery up front, with a dusting of nutmeg and sawdust. Feels a bit grabby and resiny, but it’s boasting enough acidity to push things through. Flavors of cassis, berry and herbs are normal and nice, while the finish is warm and chunky. Good Cabernet for the price.

Terrazas de Los Andes 2004 Reserva Chardonnay (Mendoza)
- $16
Fairly lemony and a bit buttery, with ripe tropical fruit sitting in wait. Aromas of butterscotch, baking spices and honey are largely attractive, as is the melon and citrus on the palate. Possibly too oaky for opponents of heavily barreled wines, but for most folks it’ll satisfy.

Terrazas de Los Andes 2003 Afincado Las Compuertas Vineyard Malbec (Mendoza)
- $45
Quite dense and ripe, with prune, earth and rubber on the nose. The depth of color coincides with the meatiness and grapiness you find on the palate, which is pleasing but modest in depth and complexity. Weighs in as a full, easy, chewy wine.
