Stephen Tanzer
"91 pts ... Saturated ruby. Blackberry, cassis, violet and celery seed aromas are carrying a full load of exotic, coconutty oak. Then lush, seamless and mouthfilling, with powerful flavors of black raspberry, mocha and sexy oak. Silky but with firm spine, as there's plenty of acidity here to buffer this huge wine's sweetness. The broad, palate-saturating finish features major suave tannins and superb length. I'd give this big boy some more time in bottle to absorb its acidity."--01/11

Wine Spectator
"90 pts ... A ripe and vibrant red, showing layers of crushed blackberry and raspberry woven with hints of coffee, mesquite and licorice, as grippy tannins add weight to the long, tangy finish. Malbec. Drink now through 2012." --12/10

Winemaker's Notes
"Ruby red in color with intense violet tones, Renacer is a rich and dense wine, with notes of ripe and caramelized fruits complemented by licorice and fresh herbs. Lush and supple in the mouth, with caressing tannins and a round finish. Recommended with grilled red meats, cheeses and roasted duck."

Technical Notes
