#74 Wine Enthusiast Top 100 (2023 edition - 2019 vintage)

96-Points by Patricio Tapia. 

The 2015 Don Nicanor "Villa Blanca" Malbec is a single-vineyard Malbec from ungrafted vines planted in 1900 in Vistalba, in Luján de Cuyo. Aromas of cumin and cardamom meld with blackberry, cassis and chocolate on the nose. This lush Malbec is in balance, with tannins still waiting to soften. Blackberry, dark plum and cassis flavors finish flush and with fruity carry over. Drink through 2026.

 

OUR HISTORY

  • In 1888, a group of Italian immigrants buried their hands in the land of Vistalba, Luján de Cuyo, the area of Mendoza that gave rise to Argentine viticulture. There they built our iconic colonial-style house, planted vineyards that are part of our current Finca Villa Blanca, and founded a new winery.
  • In 1969, the Nieto and Senetiner families acquired the estate, expanded the facilities and consolidated a presence that had already become unavoidable in the history of great Argentine wines.
  • In 1998, Nieto Senetiner became part of Molinos Río de la Plata, one of the leading food and beverage companies in the country. Committed to the highest standards of winemaking and quality, it has consolidated its leadership by developing a portfolio of recognized brands.
