Reviews and Ratings

Daniel O'Keefe rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Blackberry and plum, somewhere between ripe and jammy, as well as suggestions of pepper and violets. Tannins possess moderate grip, and complement the balanced acidity and medium body ideally. Oak enters on the finish with toasty cocoa and smoke. Excellent value, delivering Sunday dinner finesse at a Tuesday night price. Perfect for either evening provided you're pouring it alongside sirloin, burgers, or grilled carrots, zucchini, or eggplant.
Produced by Finca Flichman, Tanguero 2016 is a well-balanced, rich, fruit-driven Malbec from the Mendoza, with dark berry, mint and spicy flavours on the palate. Lovely now. Pair with grilled bison burgers. "Tanguero" the love and spirit of the Tango. Pair with a juicy game steak. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
