The Wine Independent
The 2021 CARO, 79% Malbec and 21% Cabernet Sauvignon, is deep garnet-purple in color. It soars from the glass with expressive notes of plum preserves, blueberry compote, and licorice with hints of candied violets and spice cake. The full-bodied palate is jam packed with perfumed black fruits, framed by super-ripe, super-plush tannins and tantalizing freshness, finishing very long and fragrant. This is an impressive showing for this joint venture between Lafite Rothschild and Nicolas Catena.

Wine Spectator
Leads with notes of dried violet and clay before unfolding generous layers of berry and plum preserves. Baking spice and licorice notes weave in and out as this moves toward the finish around caressing tannins, with a late gush of berry fruit and twinges of graphite. Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Better than previously reviewed. Drink now through 2035. 5,000 cases made, 100 cases imported.
Winery Notes
This wine has a dark, intense color, with hints of violet. The nose reveals a complex mix of aromas including raspberry, black pepper, violets, cloves and subtle notes of dark chocolate. On the palate the wine is well-balanced with a refreshing acidity and ripe tannins that contribute to the harmony and smoothness of the palate.
