Rated 90. The 2006 Malbec Paulucci Vineyard was aged for 10 months in 100% French oak, 20% new. Purple-colored, it offers a lovely bouquet of violets, smoke, black cherry, and blackberry. Medium-bodied and elegant, it has excellent depth, a smooth texture, and excellent balance. It will evolve for 2 - 3 years, but can be enjoyed now. Wine Spectator
