The 2007 Malbec Reserve presents a primary perfume of wild blueberry, blackberry, and black cherry leading to a layered, savory wine with complex flavors and enough light tannin to support two years of further evolution. This lengthy effort will drink well through 2014. Finca Sophenia is owned by Roberto Luka, formerly president of Wines of Argentina. The winemaking consultant is Michel Rolland. The wines are all produced from estate-grown fruit. Ninety-five percent is exported with the USA being the #1 market.Importers: Bacchus Imports-Glazer’s, Longview, TX; tel.

This may be the first time this wine has been labeled Reserve; in the past it was just Finca Sophenia Malbec. And truth be told, it’s a good but regular Malbec with berries and raisin on the bouquet, and then juicy berry fruit on the palate. Solidly made, with solid structure.——M.S.(11/1/2008)—— 86
